MAC property with the approval of an IUP and compliance with the nine stipulations listed in

truck parking on the south half of the site or for possible outside storage of related storage
containers provided by Dick’s Sanitation Service.
A chain link fence is proposed around the perimeter of the property parallel to the private road
and will required a zoning permit prior to installation.
