P67 Lake Main Motor Fuel CUP Page 6 The City should consider potential impacts of the bright lighting below a canopy and the proximity to residential properties. Submitted information states that the store business hours will be 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Outside of these hours, the fuel pumps will operate but canopy lighting will be reduced to a night level which will be about 10% of illumination. This will provide enough light to dispense fuel. (Note: A compact disc with electronic copies of the submittals includes a different lighting fixture: A Lithonia KACM surface mount model. It is not clear what this is intended for, but a surface mounted fixture is not acceptable.) 5) The architectural design, colors, and character of the canopy shall be consistent with the principal building on the site. • We received a new elevation for a canopy. The canopy material is yellow metal. The supporting columns will be stucco with brick bases. The color and the brick will be consistent with the principal building. 6) Signage may be allowed on a detached canopy in lieu of wall signage on the principal structure, provided that: a) The individual canopy sign does not exceed more than twenty (20) percent of the canopy facade facing a public right -of -way. • There currently is no signage on the convenience store part of the building because the store space has been vacant. Canopy signage must be included in the total amount of wall signage allowed. The canopy design includes only a logo of approximately 6 sf on each face. Future signage will be reviewed through sign permits. 7) Canopy posts /sign posts shall not obstruct traffic or the safe operation of the gas pumps. • The canopy posts are not problems, the canopy location overall is an issue. d. Pump Islands. Pump islands shall comply with the following performance standards: 1) Pump islands shall be elevated six (6) inches above the traveled surface of the site. 2) All pump islands shall be set at least thirty (30) feet back from any property line. Additionally, the setback between the pump islands curb face must be at least twenty -four (24) feet. • The pump islands are properly elevated and set back both from each other and from property lines. e. Dust Control and Drainage. The entire site other than taken up by a building, structure, or plantings shall be surfaced with asphalt, concrete, cobblestone, or paving brick. Plans for surfacing and drainage shall be subject to approval of the City Engineer. Drainage from all fueling areas shall be directed to an oil /grit separator. Minimum design standards for the oil /grit separator shall include the following:
