Sec. 62-2151. General standards.

In any district, the municipal agency may permit, as a conditional use, the development of a public utility, provided that the following requirements are met:

(1) Facilities are not located in residential districts, unless the requirements of the utility system of which they are a part make such location necessary.

(2) Direct access to at least a minor collector or similar street of sufficient traffic capacity to serve the use is available.

(3) In residential and commercial districts, all major facilities and storage are enclosed in a structure, where feasible; in any district, exterior facilities and storage are adequately fenced or otherwise enclosed to avoid uncontrolled access and screened consistent with the requirements of screening in this chapter.

(4) All interior areas designed for potentially noisy activities shall be sufficiently sound-insulated or separated from adjacent residential structures so as to avoid any noise nuisance.

(5) The appearance of any structure shall be neither out of character nor scale with the neighborhood within which it is to be located.

(6) Has access to public sanitary sewer in the sewer service area. (Code 1988, § 175-161; Ord. No. 2009-22, § I, 6-9-2009)
