SRS Distribution seeks lighting, signage and storage changes; staff flags lighting code issues
Summary
SRS Distribution presented plans to add modular dock ramps, replace and add exterior lighting (18 fixtures shown), restripe parking and replace signage; staff asked the applicant to lower lighting levels to meet dark-sky/code limits and to clearly show the outdoor-storage area and dumpster location on plans.
Representatives for SRS Distribution described a set of site updates including modular forklift ramps (no permanent construction), replacement and additional exterior lighting, re-striping of parking, and replacement of monument and door signage. Jan Jochims of Independence Engineering said the team included a lighting plan showing 18 new fixtures and a proposed restriping to increase spaces in the yard.
Planning staff noted that the proposed rear lighting creates localized “hot spots” that exceed the town’s lighting code and requested revised calculations and fixture selections to meet dark-sky and spill limits. Staff also asked the applicant to hatch and label the limits of outdoor storage and confirm dumpster siting so the use does not expand beyond the delineated area. “They’re gonna replace the building, lights at the back here. There is ... 18 new light fixtures that are being proposed to light up the area that is, predominantly used would be used for outdoor storage,” Jan Jochims said.
