Overhang may be utilized to reduce parking space length if a solid curb is installed and the overhang area is landscaped with plant material that does not exceed twelve (12) inches in mature height. If an attached sidewalk and curb are proposed as a wheel stop, the sidewalk must be the minimum required sidewalk width (four (4) feet), plus the overhang width.

TYPICAL PARKING LAYOUT

Accessible parking spaces: The width of accessible parking spaces shall be a minimum of eight (8) feet. Access aisles adjacent to accessible spaces shall be a minimum of five (5) feet wide, except as provided as follows: one (1) in every eight (8) accessible spaces, but not less than one (1), shall be served by an accessible aisle eight (8) feet wide minimum and shall be designated "van accessible". All accessible parking spaces shall be designated as reserved by a sign showing the symbol of accessibility. Spaces designed with the eight-foot wide accessible aisle shall have an additional sign "Van Accessible" mounted below the symbol of accessibility. Such signs shall be located so they cannot be obscured by a vehicle parked in the space.
