f Development Committee -2- SP-93-0015 The site's General Plan designation is C/FS (Commercial/Freeway Service) with a consistent zoning designation of C-FS (Commercial- Freeway Service) . Chapter 9-815 of the Development Title indicates that a Special Purpose Plan application is required for the development of a recreational vehicle park in the C-FS zone. The Development Title also indicates that all of the proposed uses noted above, except the two small "factory outlet" shopping centers, may be permitted in the zone subject to securing discretionary approvals. The Development Title' s Use Classification System includes "warehouse-styled retail outlets" in the Retail Sales & Services, General use type. According to the Table of Permitted Uses for Commercial Zones, that use type is not permitted in the C-FS zone. In order to be consistent with the Development Title' s permitted uses, and therefore with the General Plan, the project should be revised to include only those commercial uses permitted in the zone: Retail Sales & Services, Primary. SERVICE REQUIREMENTS: The General Plan and the Development Title require that development within urban areas (Thornton is an unincorporated urban area) take place with full public services: water service, wastewater disposal, and stormwater drainage. Public water is currently being provided in the area by Community Service Area (CSA) No. 12 . Although the CSA is empowered to provide sewage disposal, there are no facilities available at this time to serve the project site. The project site is located within the Stormwater Drainage Master Plan area and develop of the facility must be consistent with that Plan. Specific details regarding services will be provided by the Department of Public Works and Public Health Services during the Pre-application conference for this project. The full application for this project shall be consistent with the above service requirements. TRAFFIC/CIRCULATION: The Department of Public Works has indicated that the project will be required, in the event that it is approved, to prepare a traffic study to address the its impacts on the area' s roadways and intersections. The traffic study will also likely be required to address the impacts on Interstate 5. Consideration should be given to preparing the traffic study prior to submittal of the full application for this project so that impacts and necessary mitigation measures can be identified before an action is taken.
