Plan Set Requirements

A buffering is required between nonresidential uses adjacent to existing or projected residential uses, and between multifamily or alternative living facilities and existing or projected single-family uses, or where there is a transition from one (1) type of use to another use and for screening of mechanical equipment, service or storage areas.


If any equipment is located in the front yard it will need vegetation, Screened Fencing, or something that matches the area so that the equipment is not visible by the public and the owner has approved of it.


AHJ will also need something in writing from the owner of the property signing off on it.
