This property is located about 1/3 mile west of McDaniel Drive on the I-30 frontage. The abutting uses are mixed, ranging from office to industrial. The site contains some low ground with possible floodplain. 2. Coninatibility with Neighborhood: The adjacent land to the east is commercial for about a mile on both sides of I-30, both zoning and usage. To the west there is a scattering of mobile homes which access from Mabelvale Pike to the north. There is 300 feet to 400 feet separation. The balance of the neighborhood is commercial or industrial. Munsey Products lies immediately across I- 30. There should be no adverse effect. 3. On -Site Drives and Parkin These have been reviewed by staff and will serve to meet ordinance at this time. The second phase or future expansion may require additional parking or truck maneuvering and dock area. 4. Screening and Buffed: There are no design issues of consequence, however the owner should provide parking space marking, landscaping and truck dock areas on the Conditional Use Permit Plan. 5.

Wastewater, Sewer available, not adversely affected. Runoff from Detention pond must be diverted away from existing manholes located in the area. Fire: An additional fire hydrant is required. 7. Staff Analysis: This project is before the Commission because the owner proposes to warehouse merchandise for several stores from this building. If he served the on-site store only a conditional use permit would not be required. There are no outstanding issues on this application. There is as we indicated above a potential for more parking or maneuvering space in the future if the second phase is constructed. It is believed by staff that the issues raised on the building permit review will be dealt with by the owner and review of those items is needed here. 8. Staff Recommendation.: Approval of the plan and conditional use permit subject to items noted above. 2
