Re: Requirement for buffering and dumpster location for Development Project proposed at
1495 Mayport Road (File #476)
Dear Mr. Erickson:
I have reviewed the landscape plan submitted as part of your plan set for improvements to the
referenced property. With one exception, this plan is acceptable. Section 24-167 of the City’s Land
Development Regulations requires that a buffer be provided between residential and non-residential
uses. (This provision is not part of the Landscape regulations where a 25% improvement threshold
applies, but rather is applicable to all Development proposed as of the January 01, 2002 effective
date of the amended regulations.)
There are several options available to address this buffering requirement. I have enclosed a copy of
the applicable provisions from Chapter 24 of the code. I also want to bring to your attention Section
24-160, which requires that commercial dumpsters be screened from view with a fence or
landscaping. A dumpster location is not sown on your site plan. Please address both of these
provisions in a revised landscape plan (Plan Sheet L-1), and re-submit four (4) copies to the
Planning and Zoning Department. Feel free to call me at 247-5817 with any questions.
Sincerely,
Sonya Doerr, AICP
