Precise Plan would result in a street opening approximately twenty-four (24) feet
in width and twenty (20) feet in length to be located between tuo proposed
cul-de-sac streets. Said precise plan would amend Precise Plan of Street Alignment
75-6 (Ordinance No. 2006) which presently indicates a termination of McFadden

connector (Argosy Drive) which more efficiently accommodates
the east/west truck traffic movement emanating from the adjacent

b) The proposed alignment by minimizing the traffic conflicts of
the industrial uses to the north and east will implement the
mitigation recommendations of EIR No. 73-16, which was approved

convenient accessways through the twent-four (24) foot opening
