§ 3312.11. Drive-up stacking area.

Any use having drive-up service shall provide a motor vehicle stacking area on-site to minimize off-site traffic congestion while waiting for service.

For each drive-up unit associated with a use, an owner shall provide stacking spaces, each the size of a regular automobile parking space. The area required for these four to 25 stacking spaces is exclusive of any required parking space, loading space, driveway, aisle or required yard and is dependent on the total number of drive-up units as follows:

Sites with stacking shall include at least one exclusive by-pass lane with a minimum width of ten feet or include an aisle, driveway or other circulation area in the parking lot design to allow vehicles to by-pass the stacking area.

A drive-up unit may project up to one foot into the stacking area.
