15.04.270 Stacking requirements.
The purpose of stacking space requirements is to promote public safety by alleviating on-site and off-site traffic congestion that might otherwise result from the operation of a drive-up or drive-through facility. For all applicable drive-up or drive-through uses, the following off-street stacking requirements shall apply:
A. At a minimum, a stacking space shall be eight and one-half feet (8.5') wide and eighteen feet (18') long.
B. A stacking space at a drive-in or drive-through window, menu board, order station, designated drop-off zone, or service bay is considered to be a stacking space.
C. An area reserved for stacking spaces may not double as a circulation driveway, maneuvering area, or off-street parking space.
D. Stacking spaces may be located anywhere on the building site; provided, that traffic impacts on and off site are minimized and the location does not create negative impacts on adjacent properties due to noise, light or other factors.
E. A minimum of four (4) stacking spaces per one thousand (1,000) square feet of gross floor area plus two (2) stacking spaces for the first drive-through window and two (2) stacking spaces for each additional window shall be provided.
F. For uses that have drive-through bays or stalls, e.g., car washes, a minimum of two (2) stacking spaces per bay or stall shall be provided. (Ord. 711 §1 (Exh. A), 2017)
