A new industrial building near John Wayne Airport that could be used as a vehicle inspection facility for Fletcher Jones Management Group is scheduled for a public hearing on Oct. 17.
The Irvine Planning Commission will review and vote on a proposal by Fletcher Jones, a Las Vegas-based automotive group, to use a just-built 137,000-square-foot warehouse at 18582 Teller Ave. as a space that would accommodate automotive detailing, photography and other elements of the vehicle pre-sale process.
The building was recently built by Ares Management Corp., an investment management firm based in Los Angeles.
Fletcher Jones Motorcars, OC’s largest auto dealer by sales volume, operates a Mercedes-Benz dealership at 3300 Jamboree Road in Newport Beach.
