• • Central Suburban September 25, 2000 page 5 d. The storage area does not take up parking space or loading space as required for conformity to this Ordinance. Recent screening of outdoor storage on light industrial sites has included ivy planted along chain link fence. A fence exists on the site already. Staff recommends ivy will be appropriate for the west property line fence to screen from the right of way (4th Ave.) and residential uses to the northwest. A bituminous surface is not necessary and could be damaged with the equipment movement and material storage. Staff recommends no paving is necessary. Parking is in front of the building, storage to the side and rear. With the conditions of approval listed below, staff recommends that the general and specific findings apply. PLANNING & ZONING BOARD ACTION The P & Z Board voted to approve the site plan and CUP with the conditions listed below. The Board also asked staff to see if approvals of any nearby industrial uses included conditions on hours of operation. The Planning Coordinator reviewed files for nearby uses. Molin Concrete has a condition on the use of back up beepers on trucks, but none on hours of plant operation. No other time restrictions were found.
