The entire industrial park is zoned 1 -2, Light Industrial. It should be noted that this office reviewed the original plans, and the revised plans on 5 September, 1978 concerning issues not in compliance with Little Canada ordinances. This report deals with the plans submitted 11 January, 1979. ISSUES AND ANALYSIS The proposed acre site (Lot3, Block 3, Ryan Industrial Park) is located at Spruce Street and Ryan Lane. Proposed for the site is a warehouse facility of 4000 square feet with adjacent office space of 640 square feet. The 4,650 square foot facility is proposed to have two entrances; one from Ryan Lane on the south; and one from Spruce Street on the west. All parking, building height, and setback requirements appear to be adequately planned. Fbwever, if the site was larger, angle parking would probably not have to be utilized and there would be more rooms for moving about. Maneuverability on the site appears to be adequate, but major transport carriers actually require much more room. All new industrial sites should have enough on- -site maneuvering space so that public streets are not utilized for this purpose. Other than the general size of the site, there appears to be no major deterrent for permission of a building permit. Caution should be taken into account regarding future approval of permits for adjacent and nearby sites so that site requirements and design are coordinated with those sites already approved. iiriL `J
