(1) The site shall be planned to accomplish a desirable transition from structure to site, from structure to structure, and to provide for adequate planting, safe pedestrian movement, and adequate parking areas. The applicant is proposing to expand Taxiway G and the South Apron. The Board finds the proposed expansion will not affect compliance with this criterion. (2) Parking: (a) Parking shall be located to the rear or sides of buildings. Any side of a building facing a public street shall be considered a front side of a building for the purposes of this subsection. The project does not affect parking. The Board finds this criterion not applicable.

No new buildings are proposed. The Board finds this criterion not applicable. #SP-22-055 3 14.07 Specific Review Standards In all Zoning Districts and the City Center Form Based Codes District, the following standards shall apply: A. Environmental Protection Standards. All proposed development shall be subject to the applicable requirements of Article 12, Environmental Protection Standards. No impacts to natural resource areas are proposed. The Board finds this criterion not applicable. B. Site Design Features. All proposed development shall comply with standards for the placement of buildings, parking and loading areas, landscaping and screening, open space, stormwater, lighting, and other applicable standards related to site design pursuant to these Land Development Regulations. The proposed lighting changes are to FAA-owned navigational aids. Stormwater management standards are discussed below. No changes affecting other elements of this criterion are proposed. The Board finds this criterion met. C. Access and Circulation. All proposed development shall comply with site access and circulation standards of Section 15.A.14.

Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to limit requirements for additional upgrades as necessary to meet the requirements of these Regulations. No construction or expansion of structures is proposed. The Board finds this criterion not applicable. G. Access to Abutting Properties. The reservation of land may be required on any lot for provision of access to abutting properties whenever such access is deemed necessary to reduce curb cuts onto an arterial or collector street, to provide additional access for emergency or other purposes, or to improve general access and circulation in the area. The Board finds that no additional land is needed to support access to abutting properties. H. Utility Services. Electric, telephone and other wire-served utility lines and service connections shall be underground insofar as feasible and subject to state public utilities regulations. Any utility installations remaining above ground shall be located so as to have a harmonious relation to neighboring properties and to the site.

Disposal of Wastes. All dumpsters and other facilities to handle solid waste, including compliance with any recycling, composting, or other requirements, shall be accessible, secure and properly screened with opaque fencing to ensure that trash and debris do not escape the enclosure(s). Small receptacles intended for use by households or the public (ie, non-dumpster, non-large drum) shall not be required to be fenced or screened. No changes affecting compliance with this criterion are proposed.
