Article 5: UW@ <br /> Section 5.16: Standards for Medical Uses <br /> (B) General Standards <br /> (1) Property shall have frontage and direct access onto a State maintained roadway. <br /> (2) Areas of the property designated for the display of vehicles for sale or rent shall <br /> be improved with an all-weather surface (i.e. concrete, asphalt, gravel) and shall <br /> not be used for any other purpose. <br /> (3) Additional vehicles, other than those offered for sale or rent, shall be screened <br /> from view from adjacent properties and public rights-of-way.5 <br /> (C) Standards for the NC-23 EC-5, and E-I Zoning District(s) <br /> /4\ <br /> This use shall 9RIy be n mi++orJ Within +ho (`nmmorninl Trnnci+inn Anti,pity n <br /> (`nmmornial !Rd is+rial Trn Nede Iand 6168 nlassifina+inns <br /> designated on the Land Use Element Map of the adopted GempFehens Pie Dla.A 6 <br /> (1) The display of vehicles outdoors shall be limited to 25 vehicles per acre of <br /> property. <br /> (D) Standards for GC-4, I-1, I-2, I-3, EDB-1, EDB-2, and EDE-2.$ <br /> (1) The display of vehicles outdoors shall be limited to 45 vehicles per acre of <br /> Property. <br /> 5.16.1 Veterinary Clinic <br /> (A) Standards for Class B Sp se Permit -CZ or MPD-CZ Zoning District <br /> (1) In the AR and ASE-C ng distri , is use is intended primarily for large <br /> animal facili ' may also contain an and all animal component. <br /> (2) cated adjacent to residentially zoned property, all building acilities shall <br /> be located a minimum of 100 feet from the property line. <br /> 3 Staff is recommending the area identified on the site plan as serving as the display area for vehicles be improved <br /> (i.e. asphalt,concrete,gravel) is to avoid unnecessary disturbance of property as vehicles are moved in and out of <br /> the area. A concern we have is constant moving and parking of cars will result in unnecessary disturbance of the <br /> ground, kill vegetation serving as a stabilizing mechanism for soil,and increase sediment runoff from the property <br /> in contradiction of our regulations. <br /> 4 We have had problems in the past with identified parking areas for vehicles being displayed for sale or rent being <br /> used as primary parking areas for customers and staff. This provision will give staff greater ability to prohibit same <br /> and ensure there is adequate display area as well as required parking for patrons/staff. <br /> 5 In consultation with the Director, it was determined additional storage area could be allowed on-site for vehicles <br /> not intended for sale or rental so long as said storage area was screened from view. <br /> 6 This laguange is recommended for deletion to address a concern from the Attorney's office with respect to <br /> establishing land use prohibitions associated with acceptable land uses on the land use categories contained within <br /> the Comprehensive Plan. <br /> A typical display area for a vehicle is 288 sq.ft.,which includes the required parking area for said vehicle and the <br /> portion of drive isle allowing access. The proposal would allow approximately 17%of every acre of property to be <br /> dedicated to the display of vehicles offered for sale or rent. This regulation does not eliminate the property owner <br /> from having to comply with other ratio/dimensional standards contained within the UDO. <br /> 8 This includes the GC-4, I-1, I-2, I-3,and the Buckhorn and Eno Economic Development districts. <br /> 9 The proposal would allow approximately 30%of every acre of property to be dedicated to the display of vehicles <br /> offered for sale or rent. This regulation does not eliminate the property owner from having to comply with other <br /> ratio/dimensional standards contained within the UDO. <br /> Orange County, North Carolina—Unified Development Ordinance Page 5-131 <br />
