(A)   Purpose. The purpose of the requirements in this section is to further the appropriate provision and design of off-street and loading areas that will:

      (1)   Provide access to land uses generating large traffic volumes in a community dependent on automobile and truck transportation;

      (2)   Foster safe and efficient circulation of vehicles and pedestrians both on private property and on adjacent public streets; and

      (3)   Minimize nuisance in residential areas from on-street parking of large numbers of vehicles.

   (B)   Applicability. The requirements in this section apply to any provision, removal, enlargement or alteration of any off-street parking or loading spaces or areas accessory to any building or structure existing as of the effective date of this chapter or any new spaces or areas required to be provided under this chapter or voluntarily provided in excess of the requirements in this chapter. These provisions shall likewise apply to parking that is the principal use of a parcel.

   (C)   Number and size required facilities.

      (1)   Numbers and sizes of off-street parking and loading spaces shall be provided for all new uses and existing uses that are enlarged, expanded or changed, in conformance with the standards of Tables 10, 11, and 12 and 13.

      (2)   No additional spaces shall be required for expansion or change of an existing use if the standards herein would require an increase over the spaces already provided on the site of less than 15%.

      (3)   A required off-street parking stall shall be at least nine feet in width and 18 feet in length, exclusive of access drives or aisles, ramps, columns, or work areas. The length of a parking stall may be reduced to 17.5 feet including wheel stop if additional space of one and one half feet in length is provided for car overhang.

   (D)   Preservation and replacement of existing spaces. No off-street parking or loading spaces either provided in conformity with the provisions of this or a previous chapter or voluntarily provided in excess of what such provisions require, shall be reduced in size or number below the requirements herein, or further below such requirements, so long as the use they serve continues in operation.

   (E)   Submission of site plan.  

      (1)   A site plan showing off-street parking and loading facilities shall accompany an application for any of the following for any use required to provide over four off-street parking space or one or more off-street loading spaces:

         (c)   Rezoning;

      (2)   The President and Board of Trustees may waive or defer this requirement in any instance in which the specific use of the premise, and therefore the specific parking and loading requirements applicable, are not yet determined, such as in the case of a rezoning for an industrial subdivision. The site plan shall meet the requirements of Table 2 in the filing procedure section in this chapter.

   (F)   Storage and repair. No storage of any kind, nor motor vehicle repair work except for emergency services, is permitted in any open off-street parking or loading area.

   (G)   Access. Each required off-street parking space and loading space shall open directly upon an aisle or driveway of such width and design as to provide a safe and efficient means of vehicular access, and shall have vehicular access to a public thoroughfare in a manner that will least interfere with traffic movement thereupon. Dimensions of aisles and driveways shall be as provided in Table 10.

   (H)   Grading. All parking and loading areas shall be graded for proper drainage, and the volume of storm water runoff that exceeds that existing prior to the installation of such areas shall discharge into an approved drainage system.

   (I)   Maintenance. All parking and loading areas shall be maintained free of dust, trash and debris. The surfacing, curbing, lighting fixtures, signage, and related appurtenances shall be maintained in good condition so long as such areas are used for parking or loadings purposes.
