At full build out the total size of the proposed project will be approximately 47,500 sf (1.09 acre), which would comprise approximately 20 percent of the 5.4-acre project site. Staffing at peak operation would be 37 employees. The distribution facility would occur as part of the overall operation and does not involve additional devoted square footage, and the nursery would be leased separately and would occur within a 6,000 square foot greenhouse. The facility would be fenced and there would be two full-time security guards. Electric service is provided by PGE with carbon offset purchased through the ClimateSmart program and the applicant plans to meet 100-percent renewable energy requirement with a solar array in the future.
