possible adverse effect from the use on surrounding
properties and uses.
2. The characteristics of the site are suitable for the proposed use
considering size shape, location, topography and natural features.
3. kll required public facilities have adequate capacity to serve
the proposal.
4. The applicable requirements of the zoning district are met except
as modified by this Chapter.

(SIGNS) and Section 18. 120. 180 (APPROVAL STANDARDS) Site

It is intended that specific aspects of the proposal such as driveway

reviewed during the Site Development Review (SDR) process. The size
and characteristics of the four acre site are sufficient to
accommodate a church of the size proposed which complies with all
Code requirements. The SDR process which follows will require
compliance with all Code provisions unless a variance is requested.
The traffic generated by the church should have virtually no affect
upon local streets because access will be provided directly to Hall
Blvd. , which is an arterial street.
