The depot facility would be built in Canterbury. Once that is complete, Katz said the company is planning build another 1.1 million square-foot building on the Plainfield property. Katz said when and whether that happens depends upon the company’s growth. Costco representatives anticipate that the depot facility will process an average of 600 trucks per day. Marchisano said deliveries and shipments start at 5 a.m. and end at 4 p.m., and occur Monday through Saturday. During the meeting, residents from both towns raised concerns about potential impacts on the environment, property values, traffic safety and road conditions along with creating light and sound pollution and straining emergency services like fire and emergency medical services. During the construction phase, Marchisano said, Costco’s contractors typically hire local subcontractors. Katz and Marchisano said Costco is still in the early planning stages and has not established a timeline for construction and operation.
