§ 98-744. Standards for review.

Specific conditions for many particular conditional uses are set forth in section 98-745. If no specific conditions are set forth for a particular conditional use or if, in the opinion of the granting authority, additional terms and conditions are needed in addition to those specifically set forth in order to carry out the intent and purpose of this chapter, the following guidelines shall be used in determining the propriety of granting a conditional use permit and in requiring any conditions therefore:

(5)

The proposed use shall adequately provide for access facilities for the estimated traffic.

(6)
