If he could acquire rights for a driveway on the 30' strip of land owned by NSP on the north side, it would appear he could easily expand the buil��-ng more, which is his objective. We suggested he discuss this with N5P so ha can achieve more efficient use of the land. His business has been very successful, and he desires to stay at his location in Roseville. The existing building is 150' x 100', and he proposes a 75' addition on the west end. He has been here since 1964.

They are a whol�sale electric house, and need a 50,000 sq. ft. space, including o£fices and warehouse. We discussed v��rious potential locations in Roseville which they might consider. 11� Ficek - 631-1213. Dave �icek is looking for a si�e for immediate warehouse construction, for which we discussed various location possibilities. It appears high land values curr� nt in Rosevill.e may make this a difficult area for such development. We didn't encourag� him inasmuch as it is a low-intensity use, and normally not that attractive. This would require :.ndustrial zoning. He was considering the Reili.n g land, between Old Hiqhway and New Highway 8, which is zoned B-�. The B-3 zone allowa wholesa.ling, including warehousing for such, but not warehousing as a princi�al use.
