owners. The City should be cognizant of outdoor storage and its limited increase in land value. Site Plan The parcel is 18 acres. The main building and associated parking lots are located on the north half of the site. The south half of the site consists of trees, wetlands and agricultural crop land. The applicant's site plan shows an 8 ft. tall opaque white vinyl privacy fence extending from the existing building around the perimeter of a portion of the parking lot immediately south of the building. Additional landscape screening is proposed at the southwest corner of the building near the fence.
