SITE PLAN REVIEW

Access to the area will not be affected and thus is acceptable.
Pedestrian Access and Circulation
Pedestrian access and circulation is acceptable.
Parking

Architectural Elevations
Industrial and warehouse buildings are required to have the front facades composed of at
least 75 percent of Class 1 or Class 2 materials, with Class 1 materials comprising at least
25 percent of the total façade. Side and rear facades visible from public right(s)-of-way,
parks, public view from adjacent properties, or residential uses or district must be
composed of at least 25 percent of Class 1 of Class 2 materials. Side and rear facades not
visible from public right(s)-of-way, parks, public view from adjacent properties, or residential
uses or district may use any combination of Class 1, 2, or 3 materials.
The applicant is proposing that the primary exterior materials will be a horizontal vinyl clad
steel siding on the front of the building that will be very similar to the cemetery office. All
other sides would be covered with vertical steel panels.
Staff is recommending that the front and two sides be sided with the horizontal vinyl clad
steel siding due to the building’s visibility from County Road 42.

Utility Plans. Approval of the Site Plan is subject to approval of the Grading, Drainage,
