• In addition to the requirements of Section 51A-4.803(e), upon the filing of a complete application for review of a site plan required under this paragraph, the director shall send written notice to all owners of real property lying within 200 feet of the area for which the site plan is required
• In single family and duplex districts, the shelter structure must not occupy an area greater than 100 square feet
• A litter container of adequate size must be provided on the site at all times
• This use must be installed by public agencies
• This use is exempt from the front, side, and rear yard requirements in this chapter, except that the shelter structure must be set back at least five feet from the edge of the roadway
