Any development containing drive through services shall be subject to the following conditions and restrictions:
(A) The type, number, and location of all entrances, exits, and circulation patterns on any development site containing a drive through shall be governed by the city’s special use permit rules and regulations and as approved on the final site plan.
(B) No order box or window shall be located within 75 feet of any residentially zoned property; provided however, that the 75 foot distance may be decreased by 25% if the residentially zoned property is classified as any non-residential category on the City of Metropolis’s current Future Land Use Map.
(C) A solid fence or wall will be required, along with appropriate landscaping, to be placed between any property used for a drive-through facility and any adjoining residentially zoned property in order to screen passenger car headlight glare from adjacent residential property. The extent and height of such fence or wall is to be determined at the time of the final site plan approval.
(E) Each applicant requesting a drive through facility shall be required to furnish the city with an assessment of traffic impacts, unless the study is waived by the Administrative Official. The agency to perform the study shall be obligated to the city with the cost for the assessment to be paid by the developer.
