Total

1.46 Acres

So, this revised site is less than 60% the originally published 2.46 acres as rolled out in December 2006. Check out this picture of the Tax ID's. I called out the parcels no longer in question, and highlighted those "remaining" with red outline and hatch. Think ANYTHING will fit in this space???

And oh, not to get picky, but THE MATH WAS WRONG ON THE COUNTY'S ORIGINAL CALCULATION (go figure, right?) Need to use 43,560 sq.ft. per acre - changes the numbers slightly... for reference -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acre

So- Continuing the calculation -
