[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Trustees
of the Incorporated Village of Bayville 9-14-1981 by L.L. No. 6-1981. Amendments noted where

This chapter shall apply to all new and existing

including but not limited to shopping centers, office buildings, warehouses,

After establishment of specially marked parking
spaces for handicapped persons, no person shall park a motor vehicle
in such space, unless a handicapped person is either a passenger,
driver or occupant of the vehicle and the vehicle contains a designation
issued by the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles, pursuant to § 1203-a
of the Vehicle and Traffic Law, which shall be displayed as required
by the above statute.
A.
On each site having parking spaces for at least 20
vehicles, but not more than 25 spaces, at least one shall be specifically
designated and reserved for handicapped parking. Additional spaces
for handicapped parking shall be in accordance with the following:

B.
For all sites having total parking spaces in excess
of 100, the number of handicapped spaces shall be determined by the
Superintendent of Public Works.
C.
Parking spaces for handicapped persons shall be located
as close as possible to elevators, ramps, walkups and entrances and
shall be so located that the handicapped person is not compelled to
wheel or walk behind parked vehicles to reach entrances, ramps, walk-ups
and elevators.
D.
The exact location of parking spaces shall be designated
by the Superintendent of Public Works.
E.
At the request of the owner of the North Wind Shopping
Center, Bayville Avenue, Bayville, there having been determined by
the Village Superintendent of Public Works that there is total parking
in said site for more than 76 spaces, there shall be at least four
handicapped parking spaces at said shopping center site.
[Added 3-23-1987 by L.L. No. 2-1987]
A.
Each space designated for handicapped parking will
be not less than 15 feet wide, including three feet of crosshatch,
unless the same would create a nonconforming condition, in which event
the existing parking stall width shall be applicable.
B.
Each space shall be designated by signs with white
lettering against a blue background and bearing the wording "Handicapped
Parking State Permit Required." Such signs shall be erected, installed
and maintained by and at the expense of the owners, operators, lessees
or tenants of said site. If a sign and markings called for hereunder
are not installed within 30 days after written request by the Incorporated
Village of Bayville, the Village may proceed to install same and impose
the cost thereof upon the owner of the site.
