E.

The proposed use at the specified location will not significantly adversely affect the use and development of adjacent and nearby properties in accordance with the regulations of the district in which they are located. The location, size and height of proposed buildings and other structures, and the operation of the use will not significantly adversely affect the use and development or hinder the appropriate development of adjacent and nearby properties.

PRELIMINARY STAFF FINDINGS:

Because this use will be located approximately 76 feet from W. Schantz Avenue and approximately 138 feet from the neighboring homes in Pointe Oakwood as well as being heavily screened with vegetation staff does not believe that this project will adversely affect the use and development of adjacent and nearby properties.

F.

That the exterior architectural appeal and functional plan of any proposed structure will not be so at variance with either the exterior architectural appeal and functional plan of the structures already constructed or in the course of construction in the immediate neighborhood, or the character of the applicable district as to cause a substantial depreciation in the property values within the neighborhood.

PRELIMINARY STAFF FINDINGS:

The landscaping plan is consistent with other landscaping in the surrounding neighborhood, and should help the court blend in from an aesthetic standpoint.

G.

That adequate utilities, access roads, off-street parking and loading facilities, drainage and/or other necessary facilities, have been or are being provided at the applicant's cost.

PRELIMINARY STAFF FINDINGS:

All costs associated with this special use request will be borne solely by the applicant.

H.

That adequate measures have been or will be taken at applicant's cost to provide ingress and egress so designed as to minimize traffic congestion in the public streets and avoid hazards to pedestrian traffic.

PRELIMINARY STAFF FINDINGS:

This application proposes no change to the existing access and should not make any appreciable difference in the traffic pattern.

I.

That the special use shall, in all other respects, conform to the applicable regulations of the district in which it is located, except as such regulation may, in each instance, be modified by Council pursuant to the recommendations of the Planning Commission.

PRELIMINARY STAFF FINDINGS:

Throughout the planning process, the developer and owner have been sensitive to the compatibility issues involving Sugar Camp and the surrounding residential neighborhood. Special efforts have been undertaken to further enhance the vegetation screening on the site to effectively screen the proposed pickleball court.
