A.    The following schedule of parking space and layout standards shall apply to all parking facilities provided in the commercial park zoning districts, in accordance with this chapter.

    30 °     45 °     60 °     90 °

Depth of

  parking

  row

   (in feet)    17    20    21    20

Width of

  parking

  space    9    9    9    10

Width of

  aisle    11    13    18    22 (1- or

    (1-way)    (1-way)    (1-way)    2-way)

    Parallel parking spaces shall be at least twenty-four (24) feet in length, and eight feet in width.

    B.    The city engineer may authorize the provision of up to thirty (30) percent of the required parking spaces to be designed and designated for small cars for those uses of a site or lot which have little turnover and are typically occupied all day or overnight. Such small car spaces may be nine feet in width if in perpendicular rows or eight feet if on an angle and sixteen (16) feet in length if perpendicular or proportionally shorter if angle parking. Approved small car spaces shall be grouped and clearly marked for small car use, rather than being scattered simply to solve layout difficulties.

    C.    The city engineer may approve the use of continuous curbs as wheel stops and thus measure the size of parking spaces to be two feet less in length than otherwise required. In such instances the parking layout should allow for the vehicle to overhang the curb by two feet and such overhang area must be clear of all obstructions (signs, trees, etc.) and may not be regarded as landscape area or pedestrian circulation space.
