The applicant stated there will be a maximum attendance of 100 people at the marketing events. In addition to the fourteen (14) parking spaces required for the winery, thirty- three (33) additional overflow parking spaces shall be required on-site for the marketing events (one parking space for every three marketing event attendees). The applicant is proposing thirty-three overflow parking spaces and appears to meet this requirement. The additional marketing event parking spaces must also be shown on the Improvement Plan. The guidelines for parking stall dimensions for automobiles are a minimum of nine (9) feet wide by twenty (20) feet long ;Development Title Section 9-1015.5). The handicapped accessible parking space must be twenty (20) feet long by seventeen (17) feet wide (nine (9) feet wide parking area and an eight (8) foot wide loading and unloading area) (Development Title Section 9-1015.5). The dimensions for automobile stalls and surfacing material must be shown on the Improvement Plan. Noise There are scattered residences along the perimeter of the subject parcels. The nearest residence is located 1,000 feet south of the project site Pursuant to Development Title Section 9-1025.9(a)(1), a residential use is a noise sensitive land use. The applicant has indicated there will not be amplified sound either indoors or outdoors at the marketing events. A winery and its associated marketing events are not classified as a noise sensitive land use. In addition, noise sources emanating from any agricultural operations, including activities associated with the process or transportation of crops when such activities are conducted on agriculturally zoned lands are exempt from the Noise ordinance. However, marketing events must comply with Development Title Section 9-1025.9 regarding stationary noise standards (50 dB Hourly Equivalent Sound Level daytime. 45 dB Hourly Equivalent Sound Level nighttime, 70 dB maximum sound daytime, 65 dB maximum sound nighttime). The Development Title requires that marketing events must end by 10:00 p.m., although the applicant is proposing that marketing events end by 9:00 p m. If the applicant decides to propose amplified sound for marketing events in the future, then the applicant would need to apply for a Revision of Approved Actions application and a noise study will be required to ascertain noise impacts to noise sensitive land uses.
