Permeable surfaces must be 115 designed, constructed, and maintained to allow infiltration or collection of stormwater in order to 116 count as a permeable surface. For the purposes of calculating impervious surfaces, permeable 117 surfaces allowed for parking areas may count against impervious surface maximums found in 118 residential zoning districts and shoreland requirements.

All parking stalls shall be marked with white or yellow painted lines not less than 128 four inches wide except for single- and two-family residences.
