The conditional use is consistent with the character of the immediate vicinity of the land proposed for development. The proposed use is designed so that the site can be made consistent with the harmonious development of the zoning district in which it is proposed. c. The design of the proposed conditional use will not minimize the detrimental effects on neighboring properties. relative to the following design features: Fencing and screening, noise reduction, sign and light control, landscaping, storm drainage, police and fire protection, on and off-site traffic control, off-~treet parking and loading and other matters relevant to assuring that the proposed development site fosters desirable conditions and compatibility with the existing environment. There are but three additional site development issues that should be addressed in order for the application to be considered appropriate at this location. The Development Plan proposed includes a dedication of a 10-foot wide easement for use as a " BOardwalk" along Santa Rosa Sound. It is likely that the Marina development to the east of the request will remain in place for several years. Therefore construction of a boardwalk would end at the east end of the subject property. It would be desirable for the applicant to provide a north- south easement along the west property line to connect from the sidewalk at US9S and the proposed boardwalk. The proposed site plan calls for existing sidewalks to be demolished along the east property line. These sidewalks could provide access to the waterfront until the soundwalk could be continued east of the request site. In addition, the City is requesting that a permanent pump- out station be installed for use by the wet slips. The driveway into the request site lends itself to motorists attempting to drive westbound in eastbound lanes to reach the nearest cut in the median dividing the four- lane highway. The site plan shouk:f be amended to have a driveway designed as a right- in/right-out only configuration to prevent motorists from attempted to exit westbound. d. The proposed conditional use will not have an adverse effect on the health, safety, morals, general welfare of permitted uses located in the same or adjacent DEVELOPMENT ORDER FOR CONDITIONAL USE FOR MARINA- FINDINGS OF FACT MPB CASE # 05- 43- CU PAGE 4 zoning district as the proposed conditional use is adjacent to a similar use which is expected to lease the request site and operate the marina.

The site plan does not indicate any exterior lighting which cause glare on adjacent properties. Signage is as provided at 32 Miracle Strip Parkway SW and no additional signage is requested or required. g. There is adequate ingress and egress to the proposed conditional use. The proposed site plan includes adequate access from one point of ingress and egress on Miracle Strip Parkway, which is classified as an arterial street. The current position of the access point to US 98 should be designed as a right- in/ right- out only. There have been many incidents where vehicles have driven to the median opening against traffic causing accidents. h. There is adequate provision for vehicular traffic movement. The proposed site plan includes adequate off-street parking and attendant vehicular circulation area accessed from one point of ingress and egress on Miracle Strip Parkway. i.The proposed conditional use is consistent with the requirements of the LDC and all applicable local, state and federal regulations as the use and building are conforming to MUW-~4 District regulations. j.
