Weicht & Associates dated April 3, 2000. We have also received the Grading and Drainage Plan (Sheet 1) dated April 13, 2000 prepared by John Oliver & Associates. We offer the following comments: General: The plan proposes to construct a 2,520 square foot manufacturing addition onto an existing building. The site is located at 7815 Riverdale Road, generally South of State Highway #10 and East of Armstrong Blvd. (County Road #83). Zoning: The site is zoned B-3, Highway Business. A Conditional Use Permit was obtained by the applicant in 1992 to manufacture the boat covers and portable fishouses on the site. An amendment to the issued Conditional Use Permit is necessary to expand the manufacturing portion of the operation. Access: The site currently has access from Riverdale Road and the site plan does not propose any new accesses. Building Size: The manufacturing addition is proposing to consist of 2,520 square feet. The existing building is 3,472 square feet in size. The total building size with the new addition will be 5,992 square feet. Lot Coverage: The site is approximately 1.24 acres or 53,936 square feet in size and City Code restricts building coverage to 35 percent of a lot area or 18,878 square feet in this case. The building coverage of both the existing and proposed addition would consist of 5,992 square feet, along with an enclosed waste storage building consisting of 224 square feet. This results in a total building coverage of 6,216 square which is approximately 12 percent of lot coverage. 153
