o 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. That the Applicant has submitted a site plan and a court detail plan dated received by the City on April 3, 1997. That Section 9.11.20, Subd. 3, of the City Code requires a 40 foot landscaped separation between residential and non-residential uses. The court detail plan submitted by the Applicant proposes to maintain a 40 foot separation between the volleyball courts and the adjacent parcel to the south in the event that parcel is rezoned to single family residential. That Section 9.11.20, Subd. 4 of the City Code also requires screening between commercial and residential uses. The Applicant is proposing to install chain link fence along the common property line with the adjacent parcel to the southwest without disturbing the existing, substantial tree growth along that line in the event the adjacent parcel is rezoned to single family residential. That the parcels on the west side of Ebony Street N.W. are zoned B-3 Highway Business and Section 9.11.20, Subd. 3, does not require screening when the parcels across the street are zoned commercial. However, Section 9.11.09 of the City Code requires a 20 foot wide landscaped area along all streets; therefore, landscaping is required adjacent to Ebony Street N.W. The court detail plan submitted by the Applicant proposes to establish trees along Ebony Street but the width of this yard area is not noted on the plan. That the Applicant has stated that the development of the volleyball courts is not reducing the amount of paved, off-street parking spaces that currently exist on the subject property. That the proposed use will not be unduly dangerous or detrimental to persons residing or working in the vicinity of the use, or to the public welfare. That the proposed use will not substantially adversely impair the use, enjoyment or market value of any surrounding property. That the proposed use will be designed, constructed, operated, and maintained so as to be harmonious and appropriate in appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and will not change the essential character of the area. That the proposed use will not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses. That the proposed use will be a substantial improvement to the property. That the proposed use will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services, such as highways, streets, police and fire protection. That the proposed use will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community.
