5. 5.10.2.3.4 and 5.10.3.4.2 If a restaurant is included in the store perhaps 2000 square feet is too <br /> small. <br /> <br />The B-l, CC, and C-1 districts may abut single-family residential neighborhoods. Large- <br />scale gas/restaurant/convenience store operations can be very noisy, have bright lighting, <br />and are usually open 24 hours. These factors make them incompatible with residential <br />areas. By limiting the scale of these operations in these areas, we can reduce their potential <br />negative affects. <br /> <br />5.12.4 ' Limits on some of the uses not permitted seems excessive. For ex~,,,.,-,le furniture <br />refmishing, contractor shops. <br /> <br />These are not permitted under current County regulation. Remember these could be <br />located inside a residential subdivision and have the potential for being a nuisance. If a <br />contractor had his power saws running everyday or the chemicals associated with furniture <br />refinishing were used everyday it would likely result in complaints from neighbors. Nothing <br />here would limit these activities when done as a hobby only as a home occupation. <br /> <br />7. 5.12.5.3.2 80 square feet seems too little of agricultural outside storage. <br /> <br />* (Not sure if Jerry means agricultural uses as a home occupation or all home occupations in <br /> the AG district). Agricultural uses are exempt from County zoning. <br /> <br />Table 5.12-1 Limiting to no more than one non-resident employee and only six clients per day seems <br />low. No truck or van with a payload rating of more than one ton being allowed to park on the site <br />seems wrong. Accessory building should be able to be used for the home based business. <br /> <br /> Limits one non-resident employee - this is for the standard home occupation only. Does not <br /> apply to a rural home occupation. This carries forward current County policy. In <br /> Harrisburg, non-residents are not permitted to work at the home occupation. <br /> Only six clients per day - This conflicts with some other standards in the table and needs to <br /> be discussed with the other jurisdictions. The rationale for this standard is to spell out what <br /> will maintain the residential character of the area. Current policy does not define this <br /> clearly and only says the use shall not "generate conspicuous traffic". <br />* No truck or van with a payload rating greater than one ton permitted - This criteria limited <br /> to standard home occupations. Hard to maintain the residential character of the home <br /> occupation if heavy vehicles are parked at the home. Also, the regulation says, "parked on a <br /> regular basis", so a vehicle could be used. to make the occasional delivery or pickup. <br /> Current policy reads, "would not visually call attention to the home nor would it ever <br /> generate non-residential level noise. <br />· UDO does not permit Accessory building to be used - Again this is for a standard home <br /> occupation only. This carries forward current policy. <br /> <br />5.15 What is the rationale for establishing minlroum and maximum lot sizes for self-storage? <br />Also is their something wrong with structure being more than one story? Several climate controlled <br />facilities are three stories. <br /> <br />· The one story limitation carries forward current policy in Harrisburg. Will discuss both the <br /> lot size issue and height limitations with other jurisdictions. <br /> <br />12 <br /> <br /> <br />
