177 AFT The Board discussed how to approach the Standards of Evaluation, since the previous action prevents it from recommending rezoning of the site. Kizer indicated that there are certain "general standards" which apply to all special uses, and that there are certain "specific standards" which would apply only to a public utility. Crawford stated that the Board may wish to consider both sets of standards, including those presented by the Planning Department for a PD-OT district so that the Board of Commissioners would know the Planning Board's opinion in both situations. Crawford then reviewed the required information that the applicant must show on the site plan or supply otherwise. The Board noted that all information had been provided, including the names and addresses of owners and applicants and all required fees, with one exception. That exception was the failure to indicate the height of the proposed radio tower. The Board then considered whether the applicant had complied with the requirements of Section 8.2.4 regarding the methods of sewage disposal, provision of water service, adequacy of fire, police and rescue protection, and adequacy of site access. The Board found no evidence to indicate any problems in these areas. The Board then reviewed the specific findings necessary for a PD-OI request as stated in Sections 7.16.2 through 7.16.5 and found that the applicant had complied with all require- ments. The Board then reviewed the required findings in regard to site planning standards contained in Section 7.16.6. In regard to External Relationships, the Board found that all require- ments were satisfied except two. First, the applicant should revise the site plan to incorporate the recommendations of the NC21OT as stated in a letter dated December 15, 1982 from S.H. Jones, District Engineer. Second, the lighting of the storage lot would be better accomplished through the use of incandescent bulbs rather than the proposed sodium vapor lights. In addition, a question remained as to whether the proposed radio tower should be required to have strobe lights placed on it.
