Additional production and warehousing requirements are necessary to support continued growth at
Sportech. The needs of the organization have changed due to increased production volumes requiring

To prepare the facility for use, building improvements and interior alterations will be made to
accommodate roughly 40 production workers, 4 shipping & receiving clerks, and 5 administrative
personnel. One CNC routers, one CNC brake press, and two forklifts will be operating within the facility.

transportation infrastructure will be adequate and does not conflict with the current activities of
neighboring property owners.
