Title 17C Land Use Standards
Chapter 17C.325 Drive-through Facilities
Section 17C.325.050 Stacking Lane Standards
These standards ensure that there is adequate on-site maneuvering and circulation areas, ensure that stacking vehicles do not impede traffic on abutting streets, and that stacking lanes will not have nuisance impacts on abutting residential lands.
- Gasoline Pumps.
A minimum of thirty feet of stacking lane is required between a lot line and the nearest gasoline pump. The applicant must demonstrate to engineering services that sufficient queuing area is available such that vehicles in queue do not interfere with adjacent street traffic.
- Other Drive-through Facilities.
-
- Primary Facilities.
A minimum of eighty feet for a single stacking lane or eighty feet per lane when there is more than one stacking lane, is required for all other drive-through facilities. A stacking lane is measured from the curb cut to the service area or the order area if an outdoor order area precedes the service area. Stacking lanes do not have to be linear.
-
- Accessory Facilities.
A stacking lane is not required for accessory facilities where vehicles do not routinely stack up while waiting for the service. Examples are window washing, air compressor, and vacuum cleaning stations.
- Stacking Lane Design and Layout.
Stacking lanes must be designed so that they do not interfere with parking, parking access and vehicle circulation.
- Stacking Lanes Identified.
All stacking lanes must be clearly identified, through the use of means such as striping, landscaping and signs.
