8270 Tjossem Road in Ellensburg,WA <br /> $3,000,000 <br /> Spanning 12.42 acres and zoned Commercial Agriculture within Kittitas County, <br /> this property currently features five industrial buildings totaling approximately LL <br /> 127,200 square feet.These structures include current uses such as distribution, <br /> heavyprocessing,workshop, and storage facilities, along with 1,200 square feet . <br /> P 9 P 9 9 q of office space.The site benefits from its strategic location directly off Exit 115 ..,�,♦ mom* <br /> on 1-90, boasting heavy power and gas onsite, reinforced concrete slabs, a truck r <br /> dock, security system, an income-generating truck scale, a high-volume well, and <br /> fiber internet access. Notably, no environmental issues have been identified. <br /> While the existing infrastructure and large acreage present potential advantages, <br /> such as offering significant space for reconfiguration and outdoor amenities, <br /> the property's Commercial Agriculture zoning poses a significant hurdle.This <br /> zoning aims to preserve farmland and agricultural operations, and while some : <br /> "cultural and educational facilities" might be conditionally permitted, a large- <br /> scale community building generating substantial public traffic would not align <br /> with the zone's primary intent, likely facing considerable regulatory challenges. Exhibit 6: Tjossem Road <br /> The rural setting, approximately 4.5 miles from Central Washington University <br /> and well outside Ellensburg city limits, creates further drawbacks.The absence <br /> of sidewalks and nearby bus stops limits accessibility for those without personal <br /> vehicles, excluding segments of the community. <br /> Introducing consistent, high-volume traffic onto these rural agricultural roads - <br /> R <br /> is also problematic; these roads are not designed for such intensity, leading <br /> to potential congestion, safety concerns, and disruption to adjacent farming A <br /> and industrial operations. Furthermore, being situated amidst active farms and <br /> industrial facilities could lead to conflicts regarding noise, dust, odors, and safety <br /> for community members. Ultimately,despite its size and existing structures, this <br /> property's zoning conflicts, and rural complications make it an unsuitable choicefor the the project! s� <br /> Image Credit:Loopnet <br /> Old Heat CERB Feasibility Study 147 <br />
