The aisle width in this area varies from 29 feet to 25 feet. If this area were restriped to meet the requirements for commercial parking (9' by 20'), 4 spaces wou\d be eliminated for a total of 51 on-site spaces. The remaining 21 spaces comply with commercial code requirements. C.U.P. 77-32 3 . Access to 10 spaces is from Huntington Drive. The remaining 45 spaces have access from Holly Avenue.
