The Special Use in Flood Plain District, Ordinance Z -160, Section 21.6 as amended does not apply and all prerequisites have been met by Petitioner as verified by: The site does not fall with a Flood Plain District per the Surveyor's notes included for reference. 2. The Special Use will be consistent with the Character and Permitted Land Use of the zoning district and Carmel /Clay Comprehensive Plan because: This site is an existing elementary school approved as a Special Use within the S -2 zoning district. The portable classrooms are at times required at school sites and are consistent with the overall use of the site. The portable classrooms in this case will be temporary installations and removed once the overall construction Project is complete at the site. 3. The Special Use is physically suitable for the land in question because: There is sufficient space adjacent to the building for locating the portable classrooms. The location on the south side of the Project is also the furthest away from any adjacent residential properties. The location will be within the planned parking area on the south side and does not affect any other planned amenities on the school site. 4. The Special Use will not injuriously or adversely affect the adjacent land or property values because: The location of the portable classrooms on the south side of the building places them at a location furthest from any adjacent residential properties. There is additional buffer space between the portable classrooms and the adjacent agricultural field to the south before any residential properties exist. The portable classrooms will be temporary and will be removed once the entire Project previously approved for this site is completed. 5. The Special Use will not adversely affect vehicular or pedestrian traffic flow, nor the adequate availability of water, sewage, or storm drainage facilities, or police or fire protection because: The portable classrooms are located in an area that does not affect any other planned amenities during the construction process at the site. The classrooms do not increase the need or create any additional load on the water or sanitary sewer facilities at the Project site. Electrical service to the portable classrooms can be supported from the service to the school. Emergency access will be available to the portable classrooms, and their location does not block any emergency access into the building. 6. The special use complies with all applicable criteria.
