COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The 1987 Comprehensive Plan shows the property as
suitable for industrial use, as does the proposed 1996
Comprehensive Plan.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed 320,000 square foot office/warehouse facility will be located immediately south
of the main entrance of Park West Commerce Center near the existing three flagpoles. The
facility will be built on a 15.16 acre tract of land. Approximately 48% of the site will be
covered by the building. The site plan clearly exceeds the city's parking and landscaping
requirements. The perimeter landscaping area will contain a total of 172 trees, strategically lined
along Belt Line Road and Airline Drive creating an attractive visual and physical edge. The
applicant is requesting from City Council that the sidewalk requirement be waived until it is
deemed necessary by the city and is seeking a variance of the screening wall requirements to
permit the landscape screening of the truck courts.
