APPEAL 87-10 - SETBACK VARIANCE • PACKAGING SPECIALTIES - 1663 ARMSTRONG The only item of consideration was a request --submitted by Packaging Specialties and respresented by Tim Richardson for a variance from the setback requirements. Requesting 45' from the street ROW. Mr. Spanoto with Architectural Construction of Springdale Arkansas presented a large plan of the proposed addition. He said Packaging Specialties would like to move their machine shop to the 1 acre parcel. Mr. Spanoto said there was a 50' sewer easement along the south side of the property and a 20' utility easement along the ROW of Industrial Place and Armstrong. He said with all the easements and the required 50' building setback it cut the 1 acre parcel down to 9180 sq, ft. of buildable area. He said they were hoping to get a machine shop of approximately 10,000 sq.ft. in that parcel. Mr. Spanoto added this was the reason for the requested variance in the required setback. Boyd asked if Industrial Place was a dedicated street, and Carlisle replied it was not a dedicated street. Mills asked if there would be driveways coming off Industrial Place or Armstrong, and Mr. Spanoto replied there would be no LJ • Board of Adjustment June 15, 1987 Page 2 driveways off either of the roads.
