The following standards shall apply to the development of outdoor sales lots for the display/storage of automobiles, boats, recreational vehicles, ATVs, farm equipment, construction equipment or other substantially similar inventory as interpreted by staff.
(A) Auto/equipment sales lots differ in use from typical off street parking facilities. These lots serve as outdoor display areas of merchandise. Unlike typical off street parking facilities, auto/equipment sales lots are not required to be permanently striped so that retailers may arrange their merchandise on the sales lot as they choose.
(B) All auto/equipment sales lots shall provide a landscape buffer along the edge of the sales lot and/or property line whenever the property abuts residentially zoned property. This landscape buffer shall include a strip of evergreen trees or a privacy fence.
(C) Auto/equipment sales lots that utilize permeable paving options may be exempted from the interior landscape island requirements elsewhere in this chapter. Auto/equipment sales lots that do not utilize permeable paving options shall comply with paving surface requirements listed elsewhere in this chapter.
(D) Auto/equipment sales lots shall comply with screening requirements described in § 155.333 of this chapter.
(E) Auto/equipment sales lots built in compliance with this section must be separate from the required off-street parking facilities on site and marked clearly to define their area in contrast to the required off-street parking facilities. Where auto/equipment sales lots are not clearly defined as separate areas, the lots shall conform to all off-street parking regulations elsewhere in this regulation.
