  • (a)

    Before approving the plat or drawing of a commercial driveway, the director of public works shall see that the driveways do not exceed 30 feet in width where they cross the sidewalk, that adjacent driveways are separated by an island at least six feet in width, and that the driveways are at least six feet from the property line at intersecting streets.

    (b)

    However, the width of such driveways may be increased to 40 feet where the property is located on a corner lot abutting a major thoroughfare, and there are no paved sidewalks within the same block and on the same side of the street on which the driveway is located; and provided, also, the increased width of the driveway will not cause a hazard to pedestrian traffic.
