Project Description
The proposed project consists of the construction of a 16,888 square foot industrial building for research and development, which will primarily include laboratory and office space. The property is currently occupied by Bio-Rad Laboratories, a chemical manufacturing plant that develops a variety of chemicals products for pharmaceutical use. The project site is located at 3110 Regatta Blvd, and is 3.8 acres in size. It is bordered to the north by Regatta Boulevard and to the east by South 32nd Street. South 32nd Street terminates at the southern end of the property. The proposed building would replace six existing dilapidated metal structures and accessory buildings with one single structure. The new structure will be used for the same activities, and be located within the same location on the property.
The proposed building is single story with a height of 26 feet. The proposed building will be sand/brown with a pitched roof that is green in color. Eighty-six (86) parking spaces including 2 handicap spaces are currently provided on-site. Site improvements will include conversion of two regular parking spaces to handicap spaces and the elimination of one parking space that currently blocks sidewalk access. The proposed project also involves the installation of landscaping, lighting, utilities, implementation of stormwater management measures, and demolition of existing structures.
