A copy of a community information sheet is attached which provides further insight into the ABRA operations and concern for the neighborhood and the environment. The ABRA proposal matches these requirements. Traffic volumes, based on ITE standards, are on the low end of the traffic generation spectrum for commercial/industrial uses. ABRA consistently adheres to strict waste disposal standards, minimizing impacts to the environment. Preparation and painting operations are all carried out within the building and are carefully controlled to not allow fumes, dust, noise or odor to exit the building. An attractive, screening fence will be provided surrounding the vehicle storage area, which will provide a permanent visual screen. Extensive landscaping will be provided in a way that includes retention of existing vegetation on the site in critical areas that will enhance screening and separation from adjacent properties. The use is in harmony and is compatible with the character of the surrounding area and neighborhood. The hours of operation are compatible with the uses surrounding the site. ABRA's customary hours of operation are 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to noon on Saturday and closed Sunday. The new building design is upscale in character and will make an attractive addition to the neighborhood. The primary building material will be integrally colored burnished block. This will be accented by black colored ceramic faced block banding at the base of the building. In addition, the black ceramic block will be used at building corners to create a detail image that replicates windows. The trash enclosure will be constructed of burnished and ceramic block identical to the material used for the main portion of the building. The other main building material is blue/gray tinted glass. This material is used heavily on the two, primary faces of the building. It creates a strong commercial/office feel to the building, and identifies the customer entry point to the building. This same glass will be used for the overhead doors on the main building face to continue that upscale image and to minimize the appearance of the doors. Building accents are provided by burnished aluminum canopies over doorways, black mullions for the windows and plum colored accent panels on the north and east building faces. •
