However
, an industrial zone located in the vicinity of
this
site
might be noisy for customers. There is a road that runs through the
city
and is close to both sites;
thus
, transportation is beneficial for either location. A substantial golf course and park west of the
city
prevents
this
area from being available as a
site
.
