areas shall be surfaced and permanently maintained with asphalt concrete or Portland cement concrete. However, Development Title Section 9-1015.9 allows requirements of the Parking and Loading Chapter to be modified by the Director in cases where it is demonstrated that the requirements may be considered insufficient or excessive. The applicant submitted a letter dated May 27, 2014 requesting that areas used for parking and maneuvering be surfaced with chip seal due to the cost of asphalt concrete and Portland cement concrete. The Community Development Department has reviewed the request and has determined that areas used for maneuvering and parking of trucks must be surfaced with asphalt concrete or Portland cement concrete for the Truck Sales & Services — Repairs use type. All other areas that are used for vehicular traffic can be surfaced and permanently maintained with a chip seal. Aggregate base may be used for trailer storage areas. The parking spaces and surface material must clearly be shown on the Improvement Plan. Access Development Title Section 9-1015.5(h)(1) states, "Access driveways shall have a width of no less than twenty-five (25) feet for two-way aisles and sixteen (16) feet for one-way aisles except that in no case shall driveways designated as fire department access be less than twenty (20) feet wide." The circulation patterns for ingress and egress traffic and aisle widths must clearly be shown on the Improvement Plan. Sign Modification The proposed project consists of a sign modification pursuant to Development Title Section 9-1710.40) to modify the maximum permitted square footage per sign face for two proposed pole signs. The applicant is requesting to modify the sign face for two pole signs from the maximum permitted 60 square feet for each sign to 140 square feet and 80 square feet. The 140 square foot pole sign is located along the westerly property line adjacent to Interstate 580 and the 80 square foot pole sign is located along the easterly property line adjacent to Hansen Road. The Community Development Department has reviewed the request and has determined the modification of requirements are consistent with the findings in Development Title Section 9-1710.4 (j)[1] & [2] 1. The proposed signs are consistent with the size of the facility and related structures, the location of the public access to the development, and other signage in the vicinity. This finding can be made because the proposed sign is consistent with the aggregate square footage of the proposed facilities and will not alter the current uses on adjacent properties and related structures. 2. The height, size and number of the proposed signs are the minimum required to identify and direct the public to the activities, services and products available on- site. This finding can be made because the proposed signs are located along the frontage of Hansen Road and along Interstate 580 and are located at access entrance points directing the public and employees to services and products available on-site. Although the project site is located along the Interstate 580 Scenic Route as identified in Figure VI-2 of the General Plan,
