of 100 feet to the south property line for the proposed shop/office structure identified on the applicant’s site plan. The volunteered proposal of a 100-foot setback for the shop/office structure by the applicant is an appropriate mitigation strategy for the noise generated by the use. Staff agrees that this is a sufficient setback to help mitigate noise from impacting the neighboring dwelling and will make this setback a condition of approval. Additionally, a vegetative buffer of at least 8 feet in height along the south property line shall be required as a condition of approval to mitigate any noise from equipment/vehicle parking areas that may be located closer to the property line than the shop/office structure. Finally, a limit on how late the noise generating activities are conducted will serve as a protection for all surrounding residences, and shall be made a condition of approval. The convenience store to the east is unlikely to be significantly impacted by the proposal as it already generates loud traffic from delivery trucks as well as from its customer base. The church to the west will only be occupied during normal business hours and likely not every day. The proposed commercial use is unlikely to disturb normal church operations in a significant adverse way through reasonably assumed noise generation. Therefore, with the application of appropriate conditions, the proposed use can be operated such that it doesn’t generate any significant adverse impacts on nearby land uses. The criterion is met. 5. The use will not have a significant adverse impact on potential water impoundments identified in the Comprehensive Plan, and not create significant conflicts with operations included in the Comprehensive Plan inventory of significant mineral and aggregate sites. There are no nearby water impoundments or mineral and aggregate sites that would be impacted by the proposal. The criterion is met. 9. Based on the above findings it has been determined that the applicant’s request meets all applicable criteria for a and is, therefore, APPROVED, subject to conditions.
