area. The building will be enlarged from 15'4" x 23' to 27'4" x 32' (a 522 square foot
increase).
3. Cold Storage Building (Maintenance Facility Addition): Removal of three existing
buildings (3,280 square foot total) and approximately 1,678 square feet of asphalt and
construct a new building to store seasonal golf course equipment and accessories to be
