This plan shall include controls for vehicle <br />circulation, drop-off and pick-up of cottage food related <br />products and parking for the employee so that parking, <br />loading, unloading and turning movements are compatible <br />with the residential environment in which the cottage food <br />operation will be located. <br /> <br /> 4.
