a. Access is provided by a driveway entrance to and
from 49th Avenue into and from the property of
United Hardware Company affording said company
a more flexible and convenient traffic flow, all
as provided for in the site plan for the property
approved by the City Council.
b. United Hardware Company has been excused from the
requirement for the construction of fire lanes
around its building by reason of the existence of
49th Avenue on the southern boundary of the company
property.
c. The water trunk main installed on 49th Avenue North
to which United Hardware Company is required to
connect satisfies the fire prevention requirements
of the City Code.
2. The City Council further finds that an industrial type street on
the southern boundary of the property of United Hardware Company
serving the company's industrial type uses of its structure
justifies the levy of the special assessment for the construction
of 49th Avenue North and will prove to be a particular benefit
to the company.
