Page 5 15. Landscaping/Screening: The proposed landscape plan would allow for a mixture of coniferous and deciduous trees along the south face of the proposed building and around the entire exterior storage area and off-street parking area. A five foot high berm would be developed along the south, east, and north sides of the exterior storage area. The berm, combined with the proposed trees, would serve to screen the exterior storage area from the south, east, and north. The exterior storage area would also be screened from the west by the proposed building and a combination of coniferous and deciduous trees along the southwest comer of the storage area. The proposed parking lot would also be screened from the west and north by coniferous and deciduous trees. 16. Performance Standards: Noise: The exterior storage yard would generate a certain level of noise associated with fork lift traffic and truck traffic. However, due to the location of the storage area behind the proposed building, most of the noise generated should be shielded from the residential district to the west. 17. Impact on Surrounding Land Uses: It would appear the proposed development would have a modest impact on the surrounding land uses due to its industrial nature. However, it would appear the proposed use would not have any more of an impact on these surrounding uses than would any other industrial development. The applicant has taken measures to reduce the impact of the proposed use through berming, landscape screening, and general site layout. 18. Other Considerations: None 1. Streets: 5th Street NW would need to be extended approximately 700 feet to the east and constructed as a cul-de-sac. 2. Curb Cuts: Two proposed 3. Utilities: To be extended from the northwest and southwest of the subject site Utility and drainage easements would be required The City and RCWD approved a grading and drainage plan for the overall 27 acre industrial site which contains the subject site. Approval of a grading and drainage plan for the specific site would still be needed.
