the office trailer may need to be ADA accessible. It is not clear what function the office trailer will have. Who will be inspecting the construction of the tiny homes that will be used on site? Outdoor Storage Outdoor storage is regulated by Section 30-807 where it states outdoor storage shall not exceed 50 percent of the parcel area. All outdoor storage areas will need to be clearly identified on the survey. Outdoor storage areas shall not be located in designated parking areas or areas striped for parking. Parking and Curbing The applicant is proposing Class 5 material for the parking areas but there is no mention of concrete curb and gutter. Section 30-901 states all driving areas and parking areas shall be bounded by B612 concrete curb and gutter. Outdoor storage areas abutting an adjacent industrial zoned parcel are not required to be screened. Where screening is not required,barrier style curb B612 shall be installed to define the limits of the approved outdoor storage area. Fencing The site is proposed to be fenced with an 8'-10' tall wood fence. In any zoning district, construction of a fence exceeding seven feet in height requires a building permit as stated in Section 30-796 (d). The building permit will require the fence to be engineered. Landscaping The applicant's narrative states there are over 85 trees currently on the site and that about 15 trees will be removed. Section 30-934 (3) states: Minimum requirements. All open areas of a lot which are not used and improved for required parking areas, drives or storage shall be landscaped with a combination of overstory trees, ornamental trees, coniferous trees, shrubs, flowers, and turf or ground cover materials. The number of trees on the lot, tract, or parcel shall not be less than three plus the perimeter of the described area as measured in feet divided by 40. a. Overstory trees. Fifty percent of the required trees shall be overstory trees. b. Ornamental trees. Twenty-five percent of the required trees shall be ornamental trees. c. Coniferous trees. Twenty-five percent of the required trees shall be coniferous trees. The perimeter of the property is approximately 1,082 feet. This requires the site to have 27 trees. According to the applicant's narrative, there are enough trees to meet the city requirement. Staff would recommend that the number of trees be confirmed on the survey. Solar Panels The applicant wished to explore solar power and the panels would be installed on the far south end of the property in 2018. Section 30-805 states: solar energy systems shall be treated as an accessory structure and shall comply with all accessory structure setbacks in the applicable zoning district and shall not extend into the side-yard or rear setback when oriented in any position. The solar energy system size and location will need to be clearly identified on the survey. N:APublic Bodies\Agenda Packets\04-03-2017\10.1 sr.docx
