Document Description
The proposed project is comprised of two separate and independent projects (herein referred to as Project 1 and Project 2).
Project 1 involves the demolition of the three existing two-story office buildings totaling approximately 150,000 sq. ft. In its place, two new 35-foot- tall tilt-up concrete industrial buildings totaling 156,800 sq. ft. (one 97,800 sq. ft. building [Building 1] and one 50,000 sq. ft. building [Building 2]) would be constructed and operated. Project 1 includes a truck loading area, 291 automobile parking spaces, and new landscaping throughout the site. Building 1 would include a maximum of ten usable dock doors and Building 2 would include a maximum of eight usable dock doors. At this time, the future tenant(s) remains undetermined.
Although the tenant(s) has not been determined yet, Project 1 includes a mix of office, manufacturing, and warehouse space. Building 1 would include 52,702 sq. ft. of manufacturing space, 40,098 sq. ft. of warehouse space, and 10,000 sq. ft. of office space (5,000 sq. ft. of which would be located on the ground floor and 5,000 sq. ft. of which would be located on a second story mezzanine). Building 2 would include 25,500 sq. ft. of manufacturing space, 20,500 sq. ft. of warehouse space, and 8,000 sq. ft. of office space (4,000 sq ft of which would be located on the ground floor and 4,000 sq. ft. of which would be located on a second story mezzanine).
Project 2 involves the demolition of the existing 76,978 sq. ft., two-story office building. In its place, a new 35-foot- tall, 77,000 sq. ft. tilt-up concrete industrial building would be constructed and operated. Project 2 includes 767 linear feet of retaining walls up to 8-feet tall along the northerly and westerly property lines, a truck loading area, seven usable dock doors, 107 automobile parking spaces, and new landscaping throughout the site. At this time, the future tenant remains undetermined.
Although the tenant has not been determined yet, Project 2 includes a mix of office and warehouse space. Approximately 8,000 sq. ft. would serve as office space and 69,000 sq. ft. would serve as warehouse space.
Additionally, the proposed project includes off-site improvements at five intersections within the City to enhance public safety and address concerns related to large truck turning movements: Bake Parkway/Commercentre Drive, Bake Parkway/Dimension Drive, Dimension Drive/Commercentre Drive/Enterprise Way, Lake Forest Drive/Dimension Drive, and Lake Forest Drive/Rancho Parkway.
