Outdoor storage is not proposed on the site but would be permitted if the storage area is less than ten percent of lot area in size and the area is screened with a masonry wall. NORTH RI HLAND HILLS The proposed conditions of approval for this special use permit are attached. Applications for special use permits provide an opportunity to address modifications to specific site development and building design standards for the site. These conditions are based on the applicant's proposed development of the property. These conditions may be modified throughout the public hearing process, but they are subject to final approval by City Council. The SUP standards address land use, landscaping, site improvements, and operational standards for the business. As part of special use permit requests, the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council may require certain property improvements as a condition of SUP approval. These improvements are intended to address nonconforming features of properties and provide suggested enhancements that would help bring the property closer to compliance with current development standards. The following is a list of nonconforming features identified on the property. 1. Refuse container enclosures. Enclosures would be required for any refuse containers placed on the lot. The enclosures must comply with the standards contained in Section 118-874 of the zoning ordinance. These standards generally include a masonry enclosure, pedestrian access gates, and opaque metal gates. 2. Site landscaping. The property was developed prior to the adoption of the current landscaping and buffering standards. General standards that would apply to the site include landscape setbacks on Commercial Drive, parking lot landscaping, and general site landscaping. 3. Building and site lighting. Any nonconforming wall pack and flood light fixtures on the building would be required to be replaced with conforming fixtures. The fixtures would comply with the standards contained in 5.2.cl.(o n _1_1_ . 7.2.8. of the zoning ordinance. LAND USE PLAN: This area is designated on the Land Use Plan as Retail Commercial. The Retail Commercial land use category provides sites for community and regional shopping centers, commercial establishments, and employment centers. These sites are typically located on highways and major thoroughfares at key intersections. CURRENT ZONING: The property is zoned C-2 (Commercial). This district is intended to provide for the development of retail and general business uses primarily to serve the community and region. Uses include a wide variety of business activities and may involve limited outside storage, service, or display. The C-2 district should be located away from low and medium density residential development and should be used as a buffer between retail and industrial uses. The district is also appropriate along business corridors as indicated on the land use plan. NORTH I* I HLAND HILLS SURROUNDING ZONING ( LAND USE: MMENIMEM dI .
