Rendering, of West and East Elevations — Interior Carwash WEST ELEVATION EAST ELEVATION C. Lighting — Flexibility Requested The Zoning Code requires exterior lighting to be consistent in type, design, scale, and color to create unity in the Districts. Exterior lighting for parking lots and buildings shall not be excessive and shall be directed at their intended purposes. Any light or combination of lights shall not cast light that exceeds a meter reading of one foot candle on the travel lanes of adjoining public streets or 0.4 foot candles on adjoining residential property. The proposed plan includes under -mounted lighting on the canopy adjacent to the exterior carwash building and freestanding lights of varying heights up to 22' poles throughout the site. The lighting plan does not refer to wall -mounted lights for either building, but the architectural plans show decorative wall sconces. The proposed lighting is consistent with the use and the surrounding area. The Applicant has submitted a photometric plan that identifies the types of light fixtures and quantities. The Subject Property is not adjacent to a residential property. However as shown on the photometric plan, the lumen levels along the north property line do exceed 0.4 foot candles in a few instances. Additionally at the access entrance along Grey Fox Road, the lumen levels range from 1.7 to 2.5 foot candles on the travel lane. As a condition of approval, all lighting shall be downward directed shoebox style with flush lenses. Details about the proposed lighting are found in Attachment G. Planning Staff will add that the Applicant has not requested any type of accent pinstripe of exterior tube lighting around the building or illumination of the carwash tunnel that would be visible to the roadway. These forms of illumination were not included on the photometric plan or as part of the building elevation review. These forms of lighting and building design have not been included in this review and would not be approved under this application. D. Screening and Fencing — Meets Requirements Screens and fencing help minimize adverse impacts of public nuisances, such as noise. There is one trash enclosure/storage enclosure proposed for the Subject Property along the north property line. This fully enclosure building will be constructed of materials consistent with the building design (i.e. brick and limestone) on all four elevations and meets setback requirements.
