1. Ingress and egress – Ingress and egress for the storage yard will be from Industrial Road

A storage yard is planned for the south side of Industrial Road, near the eastern property lines. The proposal includes one driveway for ingress and egress, which will be a stabilized surface designed to control run-off and manage heavy equipment. This driveway is intended to meet Land Development Standards Manual requirements for fire truck routes and maneuverability. The project is currently under review by the Board of Adjustment, City of West Melbourne. Work would likely involve site preparation, including grading and stabilization for the driveway and yard. Future phases could include the development of the storage yard itself. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in site preparation, grading, and material supply for stabilized surfaces could find opportunities. Early engagement is advised as plans are still under review.
