The project includes the construction of a 24 foot tall, 602 square foot building and associated

As required by Section 110-221 of the City Code, site plan approval is required for major

Planning and Zoning Board and a written recommendation is forwarded to the Planning and
Zoning Director for a final decision.
Section 110-222 of the City Code establishes criteria that must be addressed by the Site Plan
Application package. Attached is a Site Plan Checklist that inventories the submittal's
consistency with these criteria (Attachment 2).
As indicated on the site plan (Attachment 3), parking is located largely behind the building. The
primary access point will be from Astronaut Boulevard, with a secondary access point on Church
Lane. All City development standards will be implemented during the permitting phase.
Sections 110-567 and 110-687 of the City Code contain landscaping requirements that the
project will be required to meet. Specifically, standards for tree planting throughout the parking
area and around the perimeter of the project.
As the property is within the AIA Economic Opportunity Overlay District, the project will also
need to meet certain architectural/site design guidelines applicable to development within this
area. Notably:
See. 110-623. - Building orientation. Buildings shall be oriented towards AIA, N. Atlantic
Avenue and Central Boulevard as well as adjacent cross -streets in order to encourage
