9. Screening shall consist of masonry walls or fencing constructed of wood or vinyl, as well as landscaping. Metal fencing may be used where landscaping provides a complete year -round screen and is irrigated to ensure survivability in compliance with Section 903.020.F (Fences) of this Ordinance. Screening exists of chain -link with slats for the outdoor storage area visible from Ryan Drive. This was an acceptable form of screening for the CUP issued in 1999. The chain -link with slats is in good condition and is being maintained by the properly owner. However, our current code allows for metal fencing where landscaping provides a complete year - round screening. The property owner will be required to install landscaping along the Ryan Drive storage area if the metal fencing remains. In addition, the property owner will be required to add screening to the storage areas visible from Ryan Lane. The screening used for this area must comply with the current code requirements which would not allow for chain -link with slats. 10. Waste or recyclable material shall be contained in a refuse container. All such containers shall be stored within a screened enclosure within the rear yard of the property. The waste containers abut the building and are stored directly behind in one of the proposed storage areas. Screening is provided by the building. Staff would recommend that the containers either be stored towards the center or eastern edge of the storage area behind the building. By doing so, it reduces their visibility from Ryan Lane. 11. The storage area shall be paved with asphalt, concrete, or other material approved by the City Council. The three storage areas approved are all paved with asphalt. 12. The storage area shall not occupy any space required for conformity to the parking regulations of the Zoning Ordinance. The property owner is requesting approval of Proof of Parking and this will be reviewed later in the report. 13. The property, including buildings and exterior site areas, shall comply with all applicable fire codes. Approval would be subject to the above condition. 14. All lighting shall be hooded and so directed that the light source shall not be visible from the public right -of -way or from neighboring residential uses, and shall be in compliance with Section 903.020.I of the Zoning Ordinance. No changes are proposed to this requirement.
