L Any menu/ordering signage interior to the site with an intercom shall not be audible from residentially zoned property and if illuminated shall be directed away from residentially zoned property. N/A—this site is not adjacent to residentially zoned property. J. Fencing and or landscaping may be required to shield head -light illumination from adjacent and nearby areas. A landscape plan has been prepared to add new landscaping throughout the site. In addition to the specific Special Use standards established for drive-thrus, the ordinance also requires compliance with the special use standards in Section 8-130. Our project meets these standards as noted below: (1) That the establishment, maintenance, or operations of the special use will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, morals, comfort or general welfare. The project is a demolition and redevelopment of an existing McDonald's restaurant. The new restaurant will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, morals comfort or general welfare of the community. In fact, the new restaurant will be an attractive addition to the neighborhood and the community. • (2) That the special use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values within the neighborhood. The restaurant is a permitted use in the B-3 zoning district. The drive-thru requires a special use permit to continue to operate a restaurant with a drive-thru on this site. The drive -though element of this restaurant will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity nor will it substantially diminish and impair property values in the neighborhood. In fact, the new restaurant will allow McDonald's to continue operation of this business in a newer, more attractive building that may help to encourage other improvements in the neighborhood and help to increase property values. (3) That the establishment of the special use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of the surrounding property for uses permitted in the district. The special use will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of the surrounding property for uses permitted in the district. This special use permit simply allows continued operation of the restaurant and drive-thru in a new building with other site improvements, such as new landscaping, parking and a dual drive-thru lane that will improve operations on the site. • (4) That adequate utilities, access roads, drainage and/or necessary facilities have been or are being provided.
