Parking lot configuration and associated landscape buffer requirements are specified in the related zoning ordinance found online and detailed in the Special Administrative Permit (SAP) application form that may be required for building a parking lot. Forms and applications can be found HERE. Typical parking spaces are 8'-6" x 18' with up to 25% of spaces allowed to be a compact size of 8' x 16'.
