north side of the site will also be graded to define a gravel parking area for employees. An existing berm and landscaping will remain along the west side of the parking lot with the exception of a small area in the southwest corner to allow for the construction of the stormwater raingarden. The raingarden has been placed on the north side of the project as the north side increases the impervious surface at the course and the south side has a slight reduction of impervious surface. Due to the north site improvements being separated from the south by the Luce Line Trail, utility extensions will not be provided to the north. However the entire structure is within 250 feet of the fire hydrant proposed on the south site and the proposed cold storage building is not located within 60 feet of any other structures. We request an agricultural exemption because there will be no water or sewer connections to this building. 2. South Site The existing building along with the garage, storage containers, wash bay and chemical storage, occupy approximately 8,514 square feet on the south site. WCC is proposing to build a new building that will enclose the wash bay and chemical storage, along with a break room, locker room, repair shop, equipment storage and maintenance office. The building is to be located 10 feet from our west property line to provide screening and noise mitigation from the residential neighborhood to the west. The site is constrained by the 14th hole fairway, creating a practical difficulty for the project. The exterior of the golf maintenance building on the south site includes architectural metal panels with clean lines. The architectural metal panels will be dark green to blend in with the surrounding landscaping. The main entry at the southwest corner is highlighted with a prefinished metal canopy. Similar to the north side of the site, the proposed structures and associated bituminous driveways and parking stalls will be located within the existing footprint of the facility. However, the south improvements reduce the impervious surface. This reduction of impervious was due to having the ability to lay out an efficient site plan and to better utilize the space available. Grading of the site will be limited and disruption to the existing landscaping will be kept minimal. Additional landscaping may be added on an as needed basis to provide screening or site enhancements once the building is constructed.
