El Camino Real 3 Popeye’s Louisiana Kitchen PROJECT INFORMATION Site Plan Revisions: Extension of a six-foot high, decorative wall with pilasters and concrete caps along Faeh Ave. IUOE Labor Union Faeh Avenue El Camino Real A solid six-foot high fence shall be included on the western boundary of the project to allow separation between the two properties. 4 Popeye’s Louisiana Kitchen PROJECT COMPONENT Visual and Acoustical Buffers for Neighborhood Compatibility: 5 Popeye’s Louisiana Kitchen PROJECT COMPONENT Visual and Acoustical Buffers for Neighborhood Compatibility: A six-foot high, decorative wall with pilasters and concrete caps has been designed to extend 277 feet along Faeh Avenue. It will screen the queue of customer cars and parking stalls along Faeh Avenue. A 5-foot planting area is proposed between the back of sidewalk and face of wall to soften the buffer. The customer order board will be screened by the proposed buffer and will include a feature known as Automatic Volume Control (AVC) which will reduce the outbound sound pressure level. David Lord, PhD 45dB Acoustics, LLC Adjusting for the elevated ambient noise levels surrounding this site, the project is in compliance with Arroyo Grande Exterior Noise Level Standards. The drive-thru Automatic Volume Control speaker system coupled with the elevated ambient noise level and 6 ft. concrete walls, means that the ordering board and queue for drive-thru will not be audible at the residences located 80 feet to the south. 6 Popeye’s Louisiana Kitchen PROJECT COMPONENT Access: There will be no vehicle access from the project onto Faeh Avenue. Primary access to the site is located on El Camino Real. The project proponent has acquired the adjacent property to the north and will provide secondary access through that parcel onto North Halcyon Road or El Camino Real. Adjacent properties include Country Kitchen, Beach Front Auto Services, and IUOE Labor Union.
