For single-family and two-family (duplex) residential dwellings, for model homes and model home parking lots located in residential zoning categories, and for city-owned facilities and Volusia County, or State of Florida, park and recreation facilities, offstreet parking areas and driveways that connect to paved streets or roads shall be surfaced with either concrete, brick, or asphalt, and maintained in a good condition for a minimum distance of 35 feet, or the distance to the house from the front or street side lot line, whichever is less.
