4 Item 05A Central Sandblasting Page 4 Within a front yard, 4’ is the maximum fence height allowed. However, as part of a Development Review or CUP, the City Council may approve up to 8’ if used as a buffer (e.g. chain-link fence with slats). The Planning Commission/City Council should consider it if is appropriate for a 6’ chain-link fence with slats to be located along the SE parking area, for the purposes of buffering/screening. Lighting Exterior lighting may be reviewed administratively during the building permit review. The City Code requires exterior lighting to be down-cast, and limits the amount of light- trespass into the street. Setbacks Required Proposed Building Front 40’ 46’ Building Side 20’ 35’ Building Rear 40’ 74’ Parking Lot/Drive Aisle Front 40’ 0’, 16’ Parking Lot/Drive Aisle Side/Rear 5’ 13’ (est) The existing paved area (to be parking drive aisle) in front of the west building has a 0’ setback , and is a non- conforming use. As such, the use can continue, but cannot be expanded (no expansion proposed). The east building to be removed, will have a parking lot in its place. The building is set back 28’ from the front property line. The proposed parking lot is set back 16’ (40’ required). This is an expansion of a non-conforming use, and requires a Variance to encroach further into the front yard setback. The applicant is considering revising the Site Plan such that the parking lot will have the same setback as that of the building to be removed (e.g. 28’, not 16’). If this is done, Staff is comfortable interpreting this as a continuation of a non-conforming use, and not requiring a Variance. Exterior Materials There are no architectural requirements within the I-1 district. The office area will have rock-faced block below the window-line, and metal paneling elsewhere. The rest of the building will be metal paneling. Trash Disposal A dumpster enclosure will be located in the NW corner of the property.
