The project is located in an area which has been <br /> developed with other general and light industrial <br /> uses. The site is in close proximity to a sand and <br /> gravel quarrying facility. This truck storage and <br /> underground tank facility is considered to be <br /> compatible with these existing industrial users. <br /> <br /> The 1.5 acre site has a relatively flat topography. <br /> The proposed improvements to this site will not <br /> require any substantial grading or alteration of <br /> the natural terrain. Substantial grading was <br /> completed on the side of the site fronting on <br /> Valley Avenue at the time of the road improvements <br /> by the City. <br /> <br />D. The grading takes into account environmental <br /> characteristics and is designed in keeping with the <br /> best engineering practices to avoid erosion, <br /> slides, or flooding to have as minimal effect on <br /> the environment as possible. <br /> <br /> This project will not require any significant <br /> amount of grading and will utilize an on-site storm <br /> water catch basin to feed the runoff into the City <br /> system. <br /> <br />E. The streets and buildings have been designed and <br /> located to complement the natural terrain and <br /> landscape. <br /> <br /> This project does not involve the construction of <br /> any buildings or streets. <br /> <br />F. Adequate public safety measures have been <br /> incorporated into the plan. <br /> <br /> This underground tank facility has been designed <br /> with the state-of-the-art equipment. The tank to <br /> be installed on this site will be double walled and <br /> piped. A liquid level alarm and leak alert system <br /> will also be installed for monitoring the integrity <br /> of the tanks. 0nce a year, the tanks must be <br /> tested by a Certified Engineer and the results <br /> forwarded to the State. <br /> <br />G. The plan conforms to the purposes of the PUD <br /> district. <br /> <br /> The plan conforms to the purposes of the PUD <br /> district in that it proposes an acceptable <br /> development on a difficult site. Because of the <br /> restrictive access and size of this site, <br /> development under conventional zoning would produce <br /> an inferior result. <br /> <br /> -2- <br /> <br /> <br />
