STAFF REPORT
Staff recommends approval of the request.
Phillip Long of Long Architects, Inc. is requesting a revised specific use permit for the
property located at 6380 Folsom Drive to allow warehousing and a mail order pharmacy.

The proposed expansion will include a 10,600 square foot warehouse to house
Prescription Mart, Inc., a mail order pharmacy, providing prescription drugs in bulk
supply. Delivery vehicles will drop off drugs and supplies approximately once per day,
five days a week. The US Postal Service will pick up packages two times a day, five days
a week and Fed Ex will pick up packages to be delivered once a day, five days a week.
The maximum future employee count is expected to be around 30.
Mr. Long is asking to maintain existing landscaping, waiving the ordinance requirements.

submitted plans and field inspections to verify compliance with applicable codes.
