The 7.28 acre <br />parcel is bordered by State Highway 10 on the east and the <br />Mississippi River on the west. The western half of the <br />property is encumbered with a drainage and utility easement <br />which will not be developed. The drainage and utility easement <br />will act as a natural buffer along the river and protect the <br />area from additional development. The proposed 18,700 square <br />foot building will have show room space, offices, service area, <br />and parts and accessory department. A majority of the parking <br />area will be used for outside display of vehicles. <br /> <br />IMAGE ALONG HIGHWAY 10 <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />The Highway 10 corridor is an important entrance to the City. <br />The orientation and appearance of businesses along this <br />corridor contribute to the development standards and image of <br />the community.
