The Council may require additional parking and loading space requirements if the minimum parking and loading requirements set forth are insufficient for the structure for which the building permit is applied for and may require that the plan or plans and specifications for each new structure provide for the additional off-street parking or loading requirements in addition to the minimum off-street parking and loading requirements set forth in § 152.145.

In granting the permit, the Council may specify the requirements as to the construction of the off-street parking as in its determination will provide an adequate and proper off-street parking facility.

(Prior Code, § 11-1203)

§ 152.148 PARKING LOTS.

Parking lots consisting of 12 or more parking spaces located in any zoning district, except for nonpermanent lots that are allowed for no more than a period of two years, and lots for the purpose of sale, resale or servicing of vehicles shall be constructed in accordance with the following requirements.

(A) Design standards. All parking lots authorized by this chapter shall be constructed pursuant to and in conformance with the design standards adopted by the city and on file with the City Clerk.

(B) Entrances and exits. The location and design of all entrances and exits shall be subject to the approval of the city.

(D) Signs. Only one sign, not to exceed three square feet in area and not located on public right-of-way, is permitted at each entrance and/or exit designating that entrance or exit and may state conditions of use of the parking lot. No other signs except as otherwise permitted in the zoning district shall be permitted, except for signs for parking spaces for the handicapped.

(E) Waiver of surfacing requirement. Upon application to the City Council, the owner of a parking lot may be relieved of the surfacing requirements of this section if the Council finds:
