The property is zoned C-1 (General Commercial) and is a corner lot with frontage on Broadway and North West End Boulevard. There is an existing convenience store with a drive-thru and a vehicle fueling station with two pump islands on the property. The owner has plans to completely redevelop the property for a new convenience store with a drive-thru and a vehicle fueling station with four pump islands. A vehicle fueling station is a special use in the C-1 district. There is no Special Use Permit on file for the existing vehicle fueling station. Because the property is being completely redeveloped, a Special Use Permit is required. The proposed site plan shows three driveways (two on Broadway and one on North West End Boulevard). The convenience store is positioned toward the rear of the property, with a row of 90 degree parking spaces in front. The drive thru window is located on the east side of the store, with the drive thru lane beginning on the south side and wrapping around the building. A detached dumpster and enclosure are in the southeast corner of the site. The vehicle fueling station is located between Broadway and the convenience store. The property has existing cross -access and cross -parking easements with the adjacent property to the east. The following variances and exceptions are being requested as part of this Special Use Permit request: • Variance for fueling station canopy setback per Section 30-413(d)(6) (minimum of 15 feet required; range from 13.85 feet to 11.05 feet proposed). Staff supports this variance because there is not sufficient area on the site to push back the canopy without adversely affecting traffic circulation, which constitutes a unique condition and an unnecessary hardship. It should be noted that the proposed setback for the new canopy is greater than the existing setback for the current canopy. 0jQ$ Gt ARA D@ 4 �^ a 401 Independence St Cape Girardeau, MO 63703 cityofcape.org 573-339-6327 Tel 573-339-6303 Fax CITY Of CAPE . , • , DEVELOPMENT SERVICES Variance O - Variance for percent open space per Section 30-333(f)(5) (minimum of 15% required; 5% proposed). Staff supports this variance because there is not sufficient area on the site to provide additional open space (landscaping and other pervious surfaces) without adversely affecting traffic circulation, which constitutes a unique condition and an unnecessary hardship. • Exception for percent overall site landscaping per Section 25-803(a) (minimum of 15% required; 5% proposed). Staff supports this exception because the applicant is proposing to provide a public art sculpture in the landscaping area near the intersection as a substantial equivalent. • Exception for width of street landscaping strip per Section 25-804(a) (minimum of 10 feet required; 3.65 feet proposed). Staff supports this exception because the applicant is proposing to provide a public art sculpture in the landscaping area near the intersection as a substantial equivalent. • Exception for percent parking lot interior landscaping per Section 25-804(b)(1) (minimum of 15% required; none proposed). Staff supports this exception because the applicant is proposing to provide a public art sculpture in the landscaping area near the intersection as a substantial equivalent. • Exception for fence surface in the front yard of a commercial property per Section 25-604 (minimum of 50% open surface required; 0% open surface proposed). Staff supports this exception because the fence will screen the residential property to the south from headlights and will be located far enough from the street so as to not create a sight distance obstruction, which qualifies as a substantial equivalent. • Exception for driveway width per Section 25-102 and the City's Standard Specifications and Drawings (maximum of 30 feet required; 40 feet proposed for each of the three driveways). Staff supports this exception because the applicant is reducing the number of driveways (from four to three) as a substantial equivalent. • Exception for driveway distance from an intersection per Section 25-102 and the City's Standard Specifications and Drawings (minimum of 50 feet; 36.89 feet proposed). Staff supports this exception because the applicant is reducing the number of driveways (from four to three) as a substantial equivalent. • Exception for wall signage per Section 25-506(a) (wall signage limited to street - facing elevations; wall sign proposed on east elevation which does not face a 0jQ$ Gt ARA D@ 4 �^ a 401 Independence St Cape Girardeau, MO 63703 573-339-6327 Tel 573-339-6303 Fax cityofcape.org CITY Of CAPE . , • , DEVELOPMENT SERVICES street). O - street). Staff supports this exception with the condition that the aggregate area of all wall signs for the building does not exceed the maximum wall sign area per the City's sign regulations. This condition of approval permits the applicant to transfer allowable wall sign area from the north and west (street -facing) elevations to the east elevation without an increase in allowable wall sign area, which qualifies as a substantial equivalent. The Zoning Code authorizes the City Council to approve Special Use Permits in accordance with Section 30-401. In order for a Special Use Permit to be approved, both the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council must consider and make findings of fact with regard to certain criteria. Staff has reviewed the criteria and made the following determinations: Criterion #1: The proposed special use will not substantially increase traffic hazards or congestion. Finding: This criterion is met. The proposed site plan provides sufficient access and circulation, which will not adversely affect traffic. It also eliminates or reduces the current problem with drive-thru stacking extending onto the street. Criterion #2: The proposed special use will not substantially increase fire hazards. Finding: This criterion is met. The proposed special use will be developed in compliance with the City's Building and Fire Codes, and will operate in compliance with local, state, and federal laws governing vehicle fueling stations. Criterion #3: The proposed special use will not adversely affect the character of the neighborhood. Finding: This criterion is met. The proposed development will be a significant improvement over the prior development in terms of architecture, landscaping, and screening. Criterion #4: The proposed special use will not adversely affect the general welfare of the community. Finding: This criterion is met. As stated above, the proposed development will result in an improvement. Furthermore, the proposed number of pump islands (four) will increase capacity and provide more efficient service for customers. Criterion #5: The proposed special use will not overtax public utilities. 0jQ$ Gt ARA D@ 4 �^ a 401 Independence St Cape Girardeau, MO 63703 573-339-6327 Tel 573-339-6303 Fax cityofcape.org unbudgeted park-related small equipment and capital expenditures.
