5 . Parking--No new permanent parking spaces are required or
provided, because no employment will take place in either new
building. Management of these facilities will take place from an
existing office at the entry from Industrial Drive. Further, an
existing parking lot adjoining the new development has excess
capacity and can accommodate additional parking.
6. Loading and Circulation--The primary use of the two new
facilities will be the occasional loading and unloading of stored
materials by tenants in a manner identical to that already
occurring in existing units at the project site. Vehicles used
for such activities will primarily be private automobiles, vans,
and small trucks.
The width of existing driveway and loading areas ranges from 29 '
to 40 ' and has proven more than adequate for loading and
unloading.
Driveways in the vicinity of the two new facilities will range in
width from approximately 16 ' to 421 . These areas will be
adequate for loading, unloading, and general vehicular
circulation. As is his current practice, the owner will continue
to assign tenants to particular units based upon their vehicular
access needs. Owners requiring truck access will be assigned
units in areas with wider drives. Units along narrow drives will
be reserved for automobile access.
7 . Total Lot Coverage--An overall property plan indicating total lot
coverage is presented on drawing L-1. As noted thereon, total
development on the owner' s 8 . 864 acre site will be 56, 480 square
feet after construction of the two proposed buildings. Resulting
lot coverage will be 14. 63% .
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or require
any additional information.
Sincerely,

Re: Expansion of Spaces for Rent
94 Industrial Drive, Northampton Industrial Park
Dear Penny:
In response to your request, I am providing the following information
to clarify and supplement plans submitted for approval of the above-
captioned project by the Northampton Redevelopment Authority:
1. Project Summary--The applicant, Mr. Robert Foote, operates a
business called Spaces for Rent at 94 Industrial Drive in the
Northampton Industrial Park. That business currently consists of
five "mini-warehouse" buildings and one larger
warehouse/distribution building. In order to capture business
opportunities, Mr. Foote proposes to add two additional mini-
warehouse buildings at the site.
2. Building Size--Unit No. 1 will contain approximately 4, 525 square
feet (3012" by 1501 ) , and unit No. 2 will contain approximately
3, 620 square feet (3012" x 1201 ) . Total square footage of the
project, then, will be approximately 8, 145 square feet.
3. Buildings Heights--The eave height of both buildings will be 917
1/2" .
4. Exterior Appearance--Appearance of both new units are described
in drawings A-1 and A-2 which have been submitted for review.
Marketing materials from the manufacturer which include exterior
photographs are being mailed separately. In general, building
appearance will be more modern versions of but will be consistent
with that of existing buildings on site.
The exterior walls of both units will consist of metal wall
panels at the building corners with steel overhead doors and
metal mullions along both sides and ends. The color of all
overhead doors, wall panels, and mullions will be white.
Gutters, downspouts, and other miscellaneous trims will be
charcoal (dark gray) . All mullions will be embossed to enhance
their appearance.
