§ 16-404. Driveways.

(a) Conformance with DoT Book of Standards.

The design of every driveway with access onto a City-owned roadway must conform to the City Department of Transportation's Book of Standards.

(b) Distance from side lot line.

(1) Driveways must be located at least 1 foot from the side lot line.

(2) However, a residential driveway may be located on the lot line if it physically abuts a driveway on the adjoining lot. This location will only be allowed if agreed to by the owners of each lot and that agreement is recorded as a shared driveway easement on each survey plat.

(c) Parking spaces.

(1) Single-family detached and semi-detached dwellings and rowhouse dwellings are allowed a paved parking space. This parking space may not be located in the required front or corner-side yard. In addition, no parking space may be located forward of the front building line.

(2) On lots that comprise less than 1,000 sq. ft., required parking spaces are excluded from the calculation of the impervious surface for the rear yard.
