Required spaces shall not be within buildings, but shall be on the site of the use served on an adjoining site. A required loading space shall not be located in a required front or street side yard or within 50 feet of any lot in an R district unless enclosed by a solid masonry or concrete wall at least eight feet high. On a site adjoining an alley, a required loading space shall be accessible from the alley, unless alternative access is approved by the Community Development Director. A required loading space shall be accessible without backing a truck across a street property line unless the Community Development Director determines that provision of a turn-around space is infeasible and approved alternative access. An occupied loading space shall not prevent access to a required offstreet parking area. (Ord. 3653 § 19, 2022; Ord. 3472 § 1, 2012)
