Zoning Classification: A-2, Agricultural -2 (up to 1 unit per 10 acres) 3. Land Use Designation: AG -2, Agriculture -2 (up to 1 unit per 10 acres) 4. Impervious Area: Proposed: 359,408 square feet or 8.25 acres 5. Building Areas: Office: 3,500 SF Distillery: 5,625 SF Bottling: 7,200 SF Barrel Storage: 42,000 SF Q separate buildings) Total: 58,325 SF 6. Open Space: Required: 80% Proposed: 95.2% 7. Traffic Circulation: The project site will be accessed by two existing driveway connections as well as an emergency access all off of State Road 60. There will also be an internal roadway system to allow access between the different development areas within the site. Based on the project's proposed traffic generation, a traffic impact study was not required. Also, based on the project location and the project's proposed traffic generation, no off-site traffic improvements are required or proposed. The project's driveway locations, design, and internal circulation plan have been reviewed and approved by Traffic Engineering and Fire Prevention. 8. Off -Street Parking: The site plan will provide sixty-nine (69) total parking spaces on site that will be distributed between each phase. Phase 1 will contain forty-one (4 1) spaces, Phase 2 eleven (11) spaces, Phase 3 seventeen (17) spaces, and there are no additional spaces proposed for Phase 4. The bulk of the parking spaces will be located within the distillery area, and the rest of the parking spaces will be situated throughout the residential areas of the project. 9. Landscape Requirements: Due to the fact that all of the properties that immediately abut the parcel are vacant and that all of the distillery operation is contained no closer than 867 feet from any property line, the project will only provide internal buffering, with the exception of the required State Road 60 landscape buffer. The project's landscape plan shows the required landscape improvements, and those landscape improvements shall be installed prior to the issuance of a project certificate of occupancy (C.O.) for each phase with the exception of the State Road 60 landscape buffer that will be required to be installed with the C.O. for Phase 1. 10.
