damaged. The outdoor storage area is in the middle of the lot to keep the area from being visible from the front of the site. The facility is open from 7:00 am to 11:00 pm. All vehicle owners must provide proof that they are the registered title owner of their vehicle and all vehicles must have current tags. There will be no additional lighting added to the area as the current lighting on the buildings and spillover from I-480 illuminates the site enough. Mr. Yager did not believe that the direction of the angled paxking would work as cars would have to enter the site backwards to park their vehicles. He suggested re-angling the spaces to run north-west to south-east to increase the turning ra.dius thereby providing easier access. He questioned if there were height restrictions for recreational vehicles and how high phase 2 buildings would be as he was concerned that the vehicles being stored at the site would be visible from the font entrance. The existing appearance of the industrial parkway is very professional and allowing outdoor storage would adversely impact the area. He suggested removing the first two parking spaces behind the fence to add additional landscape beds to block the view of the outdoor storage area entirely. Mrs. Meredith asked if screening would run the entire length of the west fence back to the I-480 fence. Mr. Bohlmann questioned if the asphalt pavement would meet O.D.O.T. requirements for handling the weight of storing recreational vehicles. Mr. Malone was more concerned that the outdoor storage would be visible to residents along the south side of I-480, and questioned if screening material would be added to the rear chain link fence. Mr. O'Malley suggested that the commission could consider height restrictions which would limit items being stored to a height equal to the future or existing building heights to ensure the residents are buffered. Mr. Schmidt agreed that re-angling the parking spaces to run north-west to south-east would make parking recreational vehicles is easier. The Maximum building height in the industrial area is 35-feet high. There will be no stacked items in the open stora.ge area and anything that is stored must be on wheels and easily moved. He thought that a maximum height for mobile homes, RV, campers, boats on trailers or tandems is 13.5-feet so he would not expect anything higher. The screening in the fence would continue the entire length of the west property line to the I-480 fence. However the existing chain link fence along the rear property line belongs to O.D.O.T. and would not be altered. The pavement will be asphalt and meet a11 O.D.O.T. specifications. The open water runoff area is located along the south/rear fence area and will remain as it currently is designed. He further advised that there would be weight limits that he would a11ow on the site to make sure his driveway and pavement is not damaged. The commission was concerned that phase 2 was no longer shown and requested new plans showing all phases existing and future be shown on the new plans. Mr. Malone requested deciduous maple or oak trees be planted along the rear 10-foot area with 20-foot spacing from the east property line continuing west to the Phase 2 area. He further requested that the new plans show existing landscaping on the site as well as any existing trees or landscaping along the back of the site. J. Lasko motion to defer Exit 2 Storage of 31399 Industrial Parkway until the applicant returns with new plans showing the following specifications: 1). Plans are to show storage spaces engineering specifications pertaining to the pavement materials. Pavement materials are to meet O.D.O.T. standards. 2). Concrete barrier curbs are to be shown in all storage spaces 4 to 5 feet from the existing chain link fence. 3). The current storage space angling is to be changed to an orientation of north-west to south-east. 4). The chain link fence screening material is to be used along the entire west side property line. 2
