Option <br />A shows the drive - through at an angle, with access from the north, sweeping around an <br />open island area and exiting to Market Drive. Option B shows the drive - through <br />perpendicular to the building, with access coming from the west, then turning north to <br />the exit to Market Drive. <br />Option A appears to offer more green space, and the driveway alignments appear to <br />work better in this sketch. There would not appear to be an obvious conflicts resulting <br />from this plan. Although these are only sketches, this plan would appear to have <br />slightly less on -site parking that Option B. It also has a smaller building. <br />Option B shows the drive - through exiting to Market Drive, but the exit lane would be <br />slightly off-set from the drive aisle that extends to the north of the street. I have not had <br />an opportunity to determine if this could be fixed with some redesign. Option B appears <br />to have a larger amount of parking, and also has a larger building. If the exit lane can <br />be realigned to avoid the off -set, I would think that Option B would provide the most <br />opportunity for both parking and new development. <br />/✓o71t / " //9 /Cse uL lc /ic <br />/104ti /� / r 51 E ?,-. /c <br />-11 <br />net, <br />,4Y CN /l Cn 74/7 IN <br />c re. <br />
