STOCKNESS CONSTRUCTION (19,200 SO FT BLDG IN BALD EAGLE IND PARK) Tom Jackson and Stockness Construction have requested site plan approval to construct a 19,200 square foot building, and a conditional use permit for a campus development on Lot 4, Block 1, Bald Eagle Industrial Park 4' Addition. The CUP for the campus development would allow the applicant to develop more than one building on the subject property at some future date, provided a site plan is approved by the City. Access to the additional buildings would be provided from a future street on the adjacent City property. The Planning Commission reviewed the request on May 23 rd and recommended approval. Because of the uncertainty as to how the property would be developed: Haas made motion, Puleo seconded, to table this matter to allow staff to meet with the developer to resolve development issues. All aye. Motion Carried.
