a. Facility shall not be located within 300 feet of an existing residential zone. The planning director may allow a reduction in this setback, not to exceed a minimum setback of 50 feet, after review of an acoustic study completed by a licensed professional showing that the facility would not exceed maximum noise levels permissible in identified environments as determined by Chapter 173-60 WAC, as amended.

b. The planning director may require an acoustic study for any proposed facility which could have or create a noise exposure greater than that deemed acceptable. Upon review of the study, increased setbacks, noise avoidance or mitigation measures may be imposed.

c. Outdoor speakers and sound amplification shall not be permitted for uses immediately next to residential uses.

d. Access to such facilities shall be from a public arterial or collector road as defined on the currently adopted City of Auburn Street Functional Classification Map. (Ord. 6435 § 1, 2012.)
