4.0 Site Plan Review

Except as otherwise set forth below or in Chapter 9A, the proposed site plan for a Research and Office Park and the accompanying plat shall be in the form, include all of the information, and shall otherwise comply with the requirements, set forth in the Site Plan Regulations. If a Research and Office Park is to be developed in phases, a separate site plan and accompanying plat shall be required for each phase, and separate hearings shall be held to review each site plan. The applicant shall pay a separate fee for each site plan review.

4.1

The applicant shall include in its site plan review application and the accompanying plat, including those for subsequent phases of the proposed development, information relating to the principal uses of the proposed buildings, as well as all secondary uses, which shall indicate compliance with the applicable provisions of Chapter 9A. Information shall be included for each of the lots making up the proposed Research and Office Park.

4.2

In addition to the requirements set forth in the Site Plan Regulations, the applicant shall provide:

1. An estimate of the water demand of the development in relation to the available public water supply capacity or, if on-site water supply is proposed, the proposed groundwater use of each drilled well;
2. A projection of the traffic to be generated by the proposed development, including tractor- trailer traffic;
3. The locations of proposed ingress and egress to the development, as well as existing and proposed roads and a depiction of internal traffic flow directions, with a note to the effect that any proposed relocation of any thereof shall require the approval of the Planning Board, and
4. The locations of open areas, whether each area will remain undeveloped, landscaped, or paved, and the approximate total area of undeveloped land verses developed land.

4.3

Off-street parking shall be provided as required by the Site Plan Regulations, but shall, in addition, follow a coherent layout that enhances the flow and safety of both vehicle and pedestrian traffic, as well as minimizing the amount of impervious surface on the site.

4.4

Signage shall conform to the requirements of Chapter 16, as well as the requirements of Chapter 9A. In addition, all signs in a Research and Office Park shall be uniform in design and follow an acceptable signage plan or scheme, with an appropriate hierarchy that enhances both pathfinding and the identity of the Research and Office Park. The site plan shall indicate the proposed locations and dimensions of all proposed signs and demonstrate compliance with these requirements.

4.5

The Planning Board shall make its determination based upon the standards set forth in Chapter 9A, and on the factors referred to in Section 5 of the Site Plan Regulations, among other considerations deemed relevant by the Planning Board.
