Notwithstanding any other provision of this Code, any property within the City may be used for off-street parking purposes provided a permit for such purpose has been issued by the Permits and Licenses Committee. Said permits shall be issued only when the extensive parking need in the district requires the issuance of such permits to reduce traffic congestion and traffic hazards. One or more permits may be issued and the days upon which such permits are valid may be consecutive or non-consecutive. The requirements of this Section shall apply equally to parking facilities maintained in connection with business establishments which are otherwise registered under other provisions of this code when such facilities are made available for public parking and a fee is charged for rental of parking space.

(1) Post a sign listing the cost of parking in letters not less than six inches in height.

(2) Provide the lot with a permanent driveway and, in no event, use the sidewalk for an entrance or exit.
