The following describes the anticipated change in traffic usage for the access point along E Lincoln Ave. The property was purchased by Odell Investments in 2015 and has been used as a production and canning facility. The production aspect of the business will be similar to the historical use of the property. The renovation of the south building will include a tasting room and garden for patrons. The production facility will develop wine and similar beverages. There will be one full time winemaker with supporting staff coming from the brewhouse at 800 E Lincoln Ave. Raw materials will be delivered by truck once every quarter. The raw materials anticipated are delivered juices and packaging materials. Odell Investments also has a bulk storage facility near I-25 that will house larger freight shipments until needed by the production facility. The tasting room will be approximately 1,800 square feet and be staffed by one full time employee with supporting staff coming from the brewhouse. The anticipated hours of operation will be similar to the Odell brewhouse, from 1pm to 6pm on weekdays and 11am to 7pm on weekends. There are 13 parking spots on the proposed site plan, with overflow parking continuing to the north and connecting to the parking lot north of the brewhouse. With the production use being very similar to how the property has been used historically, and the tasting room parking drive aisle continuing on to the larger parking areas of 800 E Lincoln Ave, trip generation using the access point along Lincoln Ave is not anticipated to be changed considerably.
