Minimum Driveway Width §25- 1.2H(6) All driveways for two-way traffic shall be a minimum of 24 feet wide Not provided 20 ft. *This is a reduction in existing lot coverage but does not comply. Additional Planning Comments: 1. While in compliance, some of the bulk requirements listed in the Land Use and Zoning Table on Sheet C-4 of the plans do not apply as the proposed use is not a residence. The Applicant shall revise the plans accordingly. 2. This application requires a Site Plan Review Advisory Board Meeting. 3. The Sustainability Checklist indicates a number of proposed plantings that are not listed on the Township’s Preferred Tree Planting List. The Applicant shall have a qualified expert testify to the species proposed to be planted and whether the are native to the area to the satisfaction of the Board. 4. The Applicant demonstrates the ability for an F-550 with trailer to turn within the existing lot and park in the parking space second closest to the building. We observe the front edge of the vehicle almost reaches the curbline along the southern edge of the property. We recommend the Applicant demonstrate the same ability to make similar turning movements into the other proposed spaces onsite. 5. The Applicant has provided information that the length of the F-550s are 15 in length and the landscape trailers are 18 feet in length, plus any distance between the two vehicles. The depth of the parking space for the trucks with landscaping vehicles is shown as 30 feet in depth, which appears to indicate both the truck and trail will not fit within the designated space.
