A parking lot and individual parking spaces in any district, whether in the form of any parking space accessory to a one-family or a two-family dwelling, parking spaces accessory to a dwelling for more than three families, or accessory to any nonresidential use, or in the form of a commercial parking lot, shall conform to the following special provisions:

All areas devoted to access driveways or roadways, maneuvering areas and parking berths, pads or spaces shall be paved with materials which form an all-weather surface and shall be properly drained to a sewer or properly managed at the discretion of the commissioner of public works;

(2)

It shall be so designed that no parking pad or space for any vehicle will project over any lot line or building setback; provided, however, that the zoning board of adjustment may approve one such parking space per family if each is to be accessory to an existing one-family or two-family dwelling or to a one-family or two-family dwelling to be constructed, if curb cuts are minimized for such new construction or for existing dwellings, except that, the owner or owners together of two or more adjacent lots may apply for a greater number of parking spaces and the zoning board of adjustment may then approve a greater number not to exceed two parking spaces per lot, if only a single curb cut is proposed for both lots and further provided in any case that each such parking space:

a.

Shall conform to all other applicable requirements of this section;

b.

Shall not be detrimental to the character of the neighborhood; and

c.

Before taking final action on any application for such use, the zoning board of adjustment submits the application to the department of public works for review and report and receives such report;

(3)

No other use shall be conducted from or upon the premises and no structure other than an attendant's shelter shall be erected thereon unless such use or structure is otherwise permitted in the district in which the parking lot is located or is a use on the premises to which the parking lot is accessory;

(4)

No vehicular entrance or exit shall be within 25 feet of a street intersection as measured from the intersection of the nearest street lines;

(5)

Any lighting used to illuminate it or any accessory structure shall be so arranged that all direct rays of light are confined to the surface of the parking lot; and

(6)

No building permit shall be issued for a parking lot until the application for the same has been submitted to the department of public works for review and report and such report is received by the department of licenses and inspection.
