7. A strip of not less than five (5) feet adjacent to the public right -of -way shall be landscaped and screened in compliance with Section 903.020.G of this Ordinance. Landscape plans for the proposed development shall be submitted to and approved by the City Council and City staff. 8. Such use is not located within two hundred (200) feet of residentially zoned property. 9. No more than a total of two (2) motor vehicle sales lot licenses may be in full force at any one time in the B -2 and B -3 Districts, nor may more than a total of four (4) such licenses be in force at any one time in the B -2, B -3, B -4, and I -1 Districts combined. 10. License shall be subject to an annual review. 11. The provisions of Section 921.010.0 of this Ordinance are considered and satisfactorily met. The standards applying to Outdoor Motor Vehicle Sales Lots are essentially the same as those applying to parking lots — paving, curbing, setbacks and green area, etc. There are some obvious additions — limitations on total number of vehicles (10), and space (380 square feet per vehicle). Because they are supposed to look like parking lots, it is typically difficult to discern when a particular business may be displaying for - sale vehicles beyond the permit and licensing allowances without multiple trips to the site. The limitation on number of vehicles is a relatively recent addition to the standard, and is designed to minimize the use of industrial park land for auto sales lots. 3. Salvage Vehicle Sales and Repair This class of use has also raised issues for the City, and has had some history with parts storage and disassembly - reassembly concerns. The current regulations provide as follows: F. Salvage Vehicle Repair, provided that: 1. Salvage Vehicle Repair, as defined by this ordinance, shall require a separate license, and such use shall demonstrate compliance with all terms of the licensing ordinance. 2. No more than four (4) licenses shall be in force in the City at any one time. 3. Parking of employee vehicles shall be in compliance with Section 903.050 of this Ordinance. 4. All materials waiting for disassembly, re- manufacture, repair and /or assembly shall be stored indoors, or shall be subject to a separate Conditional Use Permit for Outdoor Storage per the requirements of Section 914.045.A of this Ordinance. 5. There shall be no open outdoor storage of parts, clips of vehicles, partial vehicle bodies or frames, or any other component except where expressly allowed by the Conditional Use Permit process, if available. 6. 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. 7. No Salvage Vehicle Repair use may occur in any building, or on any site, that is not in full compliance with applicable building and fire codes.
