x.xiii. Buildings within the Project shall incorporate ‘cool roof’ systems into <br />their design. The cool roof system is designed to deliver higher solar <br />reflectance (i.e. the ability to reflect the visible, infrared and ultraviolet <br />wavelengths of the sun, reducing heat transfer to the building, etc.) <br />and higher thermal emittance (the ability to radiate absorbed, or non- <br />reflected solar energy) than standard designed roofing products. 29 <br />xiv. Motion control activated lighting shall be, where safety and internal <br />operations permit, used for all internal building lighting to prevent <br />internal lights being left on indefinitely; 30 <br />xv. Bio retention basins (i.e. rain gardens) shall be incorporated into the <br />Project to capture and treat runoff from truck wells within proposed <br />loading docks; 31 <br />xvi. Low flow toilets and water fixtures shall be used within the Project for <br />all restroom or general use facilities and where not associated with a <br />manufacturing or research process. 32 <br />d. Landscaping/Buffering: In addition to the standards contained in Section <br />6.8 of the UDO, the following specific standards shall apply to the Project: <br />i. All required landscaping shall be installed and maintained by the <br />developer or their successor in perpetuity; <br />ii. Existing vegetation shall be preserved in identified buffer areas as <br />indicated on the approved master concept plan, including a 100 ft. <br />perimeter buffer around external parcels zoned to an Orange County <br />residential general use zoning designation. In those instances where <br />foliage is disturbed or non-existent, landscaping shall be installed <br />consistent with the following schematic: <br />                                                             <br />29 Ibid.  <br />30 Ibid.  <br />31 Ibid.  <br />32 Ibid.  <br />24
