LDC 6.4.3.H - Preliminary Plat requirements
CODE states A current topographic survey at one-foot intervals will be submitted with the Preliminary Plat to provide sufficient information to support preliminary design and based on an approved vertical datum by the Office of the County Engineer. Contours shall extend a minimum of 100 feet beyond the project boundary. The topographic survey will have a statement detailing source of information shown and field survey methods used to obtain and verify data.
APPLICANT requests waiver as they are unable to obtain 100 feet of contours beyond the western property line because the property abuts multiple residential properties.
LDC 6.11.8.B(1) - Parking requirements
CODE states Number of Spaces. (1) Parking spaces for residential and non-residential developments shall be provided consistent with Tables 6.11-4 and 6.11-5.
APPLICANT requesting a waiver for the reduction in required spaces due to the proposed use of the site. Requesting a reduction to 10 required parking spaces for the proposed site.
LDC 6.8.6.K(2) - Buffers
CODE states B-Type buffer shall consist of a 20-foot wide landscape strip with a buffer wall. The buffer shall contain at least two shade trees and three accent/ornamental trees for every 100 lineal feet or fractional part thereof. Shrubs and groundcovers, excluding turfgrass, shall comprise at least 50 percent of the required buffer.
APPLICANT requesting a waiver to not provide a screening wall along the Type B buffer along the western property boundary. Our justification is that there is already a 6' wood fence along the length of the property boundary, our proposed building will not have any windows or doors along the western property boundary and a combination of proposed and existing landscaping will be used to screen the site along the western property boundary.
