DRAFT for QPH Attachment 1 7 <br />Chain link or similar fencing shall not be permitted anywhere on the lot of a <br />non - residential use. <br />5. Ingress and Egress. The following standards shall regulate ingress and egress <br />points within the corridor: <br />a. For purposes of determining the allowable number of ingress and egress <br />points on any particular lot, all lots recorded at the effective date of this <br />Ordinance shall be granted at least one (1) ingress and egress point per <br />road front unless access can be provided through some internal means. <br />Minimization of the total number of driveways along the Highway 70 <br />corridor is desirable. <br />b. Entrances: On all corner lots, no vehicular openings shall be located <br />closer than sixty (60) feet from the point of intersection of the street right - <br />of -way lines. To manage access on Highway 70, corner lots may be <br />required to provide ingress and/or egress from the adjacent street. <br />Entrances /exits shall not exceed thirty -six (36) feet in width measured at <br />the property line; however, in instances where parking lots serve <br />tractor /trailer traffic, the driveway entrance /exit may be increased to forty <br />(40) feet in width. Exits for parking facilities containing more than thirty - <br />six (36) parking spaces shall contain holding lanes for left - turning and <br />right - turning traffic unless the Planning Department determines that due to <br />the physical features of a site, holding lanes would be unsafe and in <br />accordance with established traffic mitigation standards, should not be <br />required. <br />c. Multiple curb cut requirements: A lot fronting on Highway 70 shall <br />have a minimum of six hundred (600) feet of road frontage along the street <br />before two (2) curb cuts are allowed unless the project meets one (1) of the <br />following criteria: <br />i. Any mixed -use development where two (2) curb cuts are approved <br />as part of a Special Use Permit or other approval procedures as <br />prescribed by the Orange County Board of Commissioners. <br />ii. In instances where multiple non - residential land uses are proposed <br />with contiguous frontage along Highway 70, within either a new <br />structure or within a previously existing single - family residence, <br />the County shall require shared driveway cuts for all land uses. <br />The County shall require the recordation of reciprocal easement <br />agreements between the separate property owners allowing for the <br />development of a service road to channel access from Highway 70 <br />to each property. An example of the shared access is as follows: <br />W <br />
