Considerations:
The applicant is requesting the approval of a site plan development
application to develop one hundred and eight (108) acres of agricultural
land into a multi-building warehousing and light manufacturing complex
at the northeast corner of Olive Avenue and Dysart Road. The project will
be built in one phase with four large buildings adding up to over 1.8
million square feet of warehousing and light manufacturing space. Off-
site improvements to Olive Avenue and Dysart Road and landscaping will
also be included. The site is designed to have two of the buildings connect
to make one larger building if needed. The applicant will be marketing the
buildings for both warehousing and light manufacturing uses. Staff will
need to monitor the tenant improvement plans to ensure there is the
required number of parking spaces on site.
