Either way, "parking at fuel pumps shall not be allowed to satisfy the parking requirements." The table shows the calculations. J. 2) Parking spaces shall be screened from abutting residential properties in compliance with Section 3, Subd. 4. Q of this Ordinance. • The new landscaping provides screening of the northwest parking area. The southern area abuts commercial property. Noise.
