City Council / GP 04-09 <br />June 21, 2004 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />Overview <br /> <br />Wash-n-Fill requests a General Planning Permit to erect a sales tent to conduct firework <br />sales in its parking lot. It will be used from June 21, 2004 through July 5, 2004. <br /> <br />The proposed location is in the parking lot west of the fuel dispensing islands. According to <br />the National Fire Protection Association 1124 guidelines, the sale of fireworks needs to be at <br />least 50-feet from any fuel-dispensing station dispensers. The location of the tent on the <br />submitted plan violates the 50-foot requirement. <br /> <br />The Fire Chef and staff visited the site with the applicant the morning of June 17, 2004 to <br />discuss the NFPA requirements. After reviewing the plans and meeting on site, it was <br />concluded that the tent will need to be located in the two parking stalls just off the <br />southwest corner of the car wash. This is the best location to have minimum impact on <br />vehicular circulation. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Staff recommends that the City Council approve the Wash-n-Fill requests a General <br />Planning Permit to conduct firework sales from a 10' x 20' sales tent with the following <br />condition: <br /> <br />1. THE SALE OF FIREWORKS NEEDS TO BE AT LEAST 50-FEET FROM <br /> AND FUEL-DISPENSING STATION DISPENSERS. <br />2. NO ELECTRICAL SERVICES SHALL BE ACROSS ANY DRIVE OR <br /> WALKING SURFACE. <br />3. IF TRAFFIC BECOMES A PROBLEM AROUND THE TEMPORARY <br /> SITE, THE SALES AREA SHALL BE DELINEATED WITH A BARRIER <br /> TO RESTRICT TRAFFIC. <br />4. THE SALES TENT SHALL BE MAINTAINED FREE OF DEBRIS AND <br /> KEPT IN AN ORDERLY CONDITION. <br />5. THE LOCATION OF THE TENT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE <br /> SUBMITTED SITE PLAN AND MEETS ALL FIRE CODES. <br />6. THE TENT SHALL BE REMOVED WITHIN ONE WEEK OF THE <br /> END OF THE SALES PERIOD AND THE SITE BE RETURNED TO ITS <br /> PREVIOUS CONDITION. <br />7. THE GENERAL PLANNING PERMIT IS VALID UNTIL DECEMBER <br /> 31, 2004. <br />8. THE SALES TENT SHALL BE LOCATED IN THE RECOMMENDED <br /> LOCATION AS INDICATED ON THE SITE PLAN. <br /> <br />S:\PLANNING\Case Files\2004\GP 04-09 Wash n Fill\GP 04-09_CC.DOC <br /> <br /> <br />
