REASONS
After reviewing Code Section 265-47(0), it's the Departments OpInIOn that a reVISIOn and
clarification of the Section is required. As such the Department is proposing the attached

reference to circular driveways and provides for a minimum width of 10'-0" and a minimum

In addition the section includes language to assure that all recreational vehicles such as boats, jet

the front building line furthest from the street with an enclosure installed around the subject area
to obstruct the view of the vehicle from the rights-of-ways. It further clarifies that parking pads
located behind the front building line are not to be construed as driveways for the purpose of this
Ordinance, and that they may be installed contiguous to an approved driveway with approved
permits from the Building Department.
