Campbell Road Oshkosh, WI July 24, 2009 The site contains an existing unmanned communications building. Time Warner leases the land from WPS for building. Time Warner would like to expand the building with a 24'x24' expansion to the west side of the existing building, and a 24'x11' expansion to the east side of the existing building. The building will be used to expand the utility services for Time Warner Cable. The remainder of the existing site is used for boat and RV storage. Surrounding land uses include a marina to the north, a vacant lot to the south, the Fox River to the east, and UW- Oshkosh Athletic facilities to the west. The proposed building will remain unmanned and only be used to house additional communications equipment. The building addition will not cause any changes to the nature of the site, including noise, fumes, odor, vibrations, or hours of operation. In addition, traffic on site will not change. All gates, driveways, and fences on site will remain in their current state. The total area of expansion is 840 square feet; however due to part of the expansion being constructed on existing asphalt pavement, the overall added impervious is approximately 300-square feet. 4 IM 'HSONHSO 379 NOiSNbcJX3 enH I2JOdSNVa a 3N U MM11.
