Since the non-conformities of off-street parking on a~treetside in an industrial district and of the exterior wall treatment along Old Highway #8 are proposed to continue, theapp1icant must have approval of a non-conforming use permit before a building permit can be issued for the proposed building. The applicant maintains that it would not be practical to change the exterior wall treatment of the existing building and to relocate the parking area. The applicant has however indicated that slats would be placed in the existing chain link fence along the southwestern edge of the property to better screen the outside stdrageof material. In general~ the applicant eliminated and/or reduced the impact of the existing non-conformities in the application for NC-36 with the exception of providing additional scr~ening by slatting the chain linke fence on the southwestern portion of the site.
