Memo to City Council/CU 97-24 <br />October 20, 1997 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />area, rather than along the western edge of property where landscaping <br />already exists. <br /> <br />Traffic Circulation <br /> <br />To maintain adequate vehicular circulation, assuming traffic volumes <br />increase with proposed building/site improvements, it may become necessary <br />to relocate existing propane and kerosene tanks as well as some of the coin- <br />operated vacuum cleaners. If it is demonstrated that vehicular circulation <br />can be accommodated without cars driving on the sidewalk, the fuel tanks <br />will not have to be relocated. Regardless, vehicular traffic must be separated <br />from pedestrian. With pavement abutting the sidewalk on at least part of <br />the site, staff believes curb and gutter will be the most effective means to <br />achieve this separation. <br /> <br />Curb and gutter should also be added along the northwest side of the car <br />wash entry to separate green space from traffic areas. <br /> <br />Canopy <br /> <br />The canopy, which requires a variance for construction, will cover 4 existing <br />fuel pumps. It's proposed dimensions are 24' x 30' and 15' high. It will <br />extend to within I foot of the Lowell Avenue property line. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />It is recommended that the Planning Commission recommend approval of the <br />conditional use permit to make building/site improvements for Beaudry Oil <br />Co../Weicht and Associates with the following conditions: <br /> <br />FOUR COMPLETE SETES OF PLANS BE SUBMITTED TO STAFF FOR REVIEW AND <br />APPROVAL PRIOR TO ISSUANCE OF A BUILDING PERMIT. <br /> <br />CURB, GUTTER AND LANDSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS AS NEGOTIATED WITH STAFF BE <br />INCORPROATED INTO ANY PLANS FOR SITE IMPROVEMENTS. <br /> <br />MN/DOT MUST APPROVE ANY SITE PLANS INVOLVING WORK WITHIN THE HIGHWAY <br />10 RIGHT OF WAY. <br /> <br />4.
