The plan approved in I997 was for the first phase consisting of 48,390 square feet. There was also a future expansion of 17,280 square feet noted at that time. The revision dated February 6, 1998 proposes to construct both phases at this time for a total of 69,440 square feet. We offer the following comments: Zoning: The site is zoned Industrial for which office, manufacturing and warehousing are permitted uses. Access: As with the original version, there are 3 accesses proposed onto McKinley Street. The most easterly access will be a truck entrance and the other two will be customer/employee entrances to the site. Lot Coverage: The site is approximately 5.3 acres in size and City Code restricts building coverage to 35 percent of a lot area, or 80,800 square feet in this case. The size of the proposed structure is 69,440, for a lot coverage of 30%. The Business Park 95 Covenants restricts maximum impervious surface to 85%; the revised plan at build out has an impervious surface coverage of 75%. Utilities: The facility wilt be served by sanitary sewer and municipal water. Setbacks: The proposed structure meets or exceeds the 40-foot front yard, 35-foot rear yard and 20-foot side yard setbacks established in the Industrial District.
