r BOOK. 98 i''! % S58 project has been approved by the County Traffic Engineer. The Traffic Engineer also approved the existing paved access driveways, the internal traffic circulation plan, and the drop-off area. No off-site traffic improvements are needed or proposed. 8. Off -Street Parking: Total Required: 103 parking spaces Total Provided: 115 parking spaces Note: A sufficient number of parking spaces exists on the site to provide the required number of parking spaces for the existing place of worship, the proposed child care, and the proposed primary school. Currently, the spaces on the site are stabilized grass parking spaces. Grass parking spaces are allowed for churches and other infrequent uses. Child care and primary school uses are not considered infrequent uses, and parking for such uses must be paved. The site plan proposes the paving of 33 spaces for those uses. Thus, all parking requirements are satisfied. 9. Stormwater Management: At the July 25, 1996 Planning and Zoning Commission public hearing for the project, concerns were raised by surrounding property owners regarding the impact of the proposed project on existing stormwater drainage in the vicinity. Subsequent to that meeting, •Public Works staff evaluated reported drainage problems in the vicinity of the project. Public Works staff has reconfirmed that the proposed stormwater management plan is designed to limit off- site stormwater discharge from the entire site in a manner consistent with county and St. Johns River Water Management District standards. Public Works staff has also determined that drainage problems in the area are not caused by drainage from the subject site, and that the proposed development will not exacerbate any existing drainage problems. The Stormwater Management Plan has been approved by the Public Works Department, and a Type "A" Stormwater permit will be issued. 10. Landscape Plan: The landscape plan is in compliance with Chapter 926 of the county's Land Development Regulations and proposes a Type "D" buffer along the site's eastern and southern property boundaries. Buffer requirements are in compliance with the specific land use criteria. For this site, the proposed type "D" buffer satisfies the specific land use criteria for the place of worship and the proposed child care facility and primary school. Therefore, all buffering requirements are satisfied. 11. Utilities: The site is currently serviced by county potable water and wastewater systems. The county utility services department and the environmental health department have no objection to approval of the site plan and use requests. 12. Environmental Issues: During review of a previous site plan application for the site, Environmental Planning staff determined that the site's vegetation had been significantly altered and disturbed, with no actual nativevegetation community remaining on site to be preserved. Therefore, no conservation set-aside measures are required. 13. Specific Land Use Criteria: The application must satisfy the following specific land use criteria for a child care facility and an educational center proposed to be constructed in the RM -10 district: A.
