In order to permit a wide range of uses and provide for creativity and flexibility for developers and the City, while still preserving the character and identity of Davison, the following performance standards apply to all uses within the C-2 Traditional Neighborhood Commercial.
(a) No use shall operate before 7:00 a.m. nor after 10:00 p.m., unless specifically approved as such.
(b) Any outdoor lighting adjacent to residential districts shall be no greater than twelve (12) feet in height. All lighting levels shall be at zero foot candles at the neighboring residentially zoned property. The developer is required to submit a photometric plan.
(c) Dumpster unloading, parking lot cleaning, shall not take place before 7:00 a.m. nor after 10:00 p.m. excepting that snow plowing is permitted all hours.
(d) The Planning Commission may require the installation of sound dampening or noise walls when a proposed use has loading and/or unloading that may disturb adjacent residential uses, or requires the need for a generator or other such items that emit noise not typically associated with residential neighborhoods or light commercial development.
(e) No use is permitted which emits smoke, soot or noxious fumes or odors.
(f) Road construction, road cleaning, snow plowing and other such similar work conducted by the City and/or its agents operated within the road or road right-of-way shall be exempt from these standards. Additionally, sirens used by public safety agencies are exempt as well.
(g) No use is permitted which creates a noise level greater than the provisions allowed in Section 1288.27. The Planning Commission may require details of operation and map showing the areas affected by potential noise.
(h) Any use that evolves into a nuisance, resulting in police, fire or other such calls that exceed by fifty percent (50%) similar uses in the City or uses within five hundred (500) feet will be issued a notice and a public hearing will be scheduled. The purpose of the public hearing is to establish a timeframe and plan for improvement. If improvement is not made, the City will pursue the action as a nuisance and a civil infraction.
