circumstances, property zoned "PBP" may be located adjacent to residential
uses.

A.
The
maximum height of buildings and structures and the minimum dimensions
of lots and yards shall be as follows:
1.
Maximum height:
a.
Buildings. Forty (40) feet, except when a building
is within one hundred (100) feet of single-family residential property,
the maximum height shall be thirty (30) feet.
b.
Structures other than buildings. One hundred (100)

No front, side or rear yard is required; provided however, that
for properties adjacent to or within sixty (60) feet of properties
Zoned "R-1" and "R-2", a twenty-five (25) foot building setback is

at the establishment during working hours. The number of such parking
spaces shall be determined at the time of preliminary development
plan approval, but in no event shall there be less than two and one-half
(2.5) spaces for each one thousand (1,000) square feet of total floor
area. A portion of such parking may, at the discretion of the Planning
Commission or Governing Body, be deferred at the time of preliminary
development plan approval.
B.
Each
establishment shall provide adequate loading space within a building
or in a side or rear yard in such a way that all storage, standing

B.
Integrated Architectural Design. The plan for development
of the "PBP" development shall demonstrate integration and coordination
of the architectural design for buildings, structures, landscaping
and open space areas.
C.
High Quality Visual Image. Buildings in the "PBP" District

Limited Activities. Uses in the "PBP" District should involve
activities that are totally enclosed and have no noise, odor, vibration

No use shall be permitted or so operated as to produce or emit from
a vent, stack, chimney or combustion process any smoke darker than

2.
Any lighting used to illuminate an off-street parking area, sign
or other structure shall be shielded as to deflect light away from
any adjoining residentially zoned property or from public streets.

or combination of lights that cast light on adjacent residentially
zoned property shall not exceed one-half (0.5) foot-candles (meter
