Lighting • The majority of the site is conforming to the lighting standards of the zoning ordinance; however the canopy lighting needs to be revised to clearly meet the requirements for being recessed into the canopy. Additionally, the lighting site plan needs to be revised to clearly depict property lines and conformance to the foot candle limitations. Parking This facility will be required to provide parking per the Motor Fuel Station parking standards as listed below. Parking Figure Code Requirement Spaces Required Spaces Provided Retail 2,880 s.f One (1) space for every 200 s.f. 15 Car Wash None required in addition to the motor fuel station parking 0 Motor Fuel Station Four (4) spaces plus one (1) for every employee 8 Total 23 26 The site is currently over parked by 3 spaces. This is based on the assumption of four employees on t o maximum shift, which could fluctuate. Signage Motor Fuel Stations that abut freeways are allowed one pylon sign addressing the freeway with a maximum area of 100 square feet and a maximum height of 65 feet; one additional sign with a maximum area of 32 square feet and a maximum height of 30 feet is allowed per street frontage (Lake Drive and Town Center Parkway). In this instance the freeway sign is existing and will not be moved; however, the existing sign on Lake Drive needs to be relocated as a result of the Town Center Parkway /Lake Drive improvement project. This sign exceeds the maximum area requirements, but due to the relocation caused by a city improvement project it will be allowed to be relocated on the site in its current configuration. Due to the fact that it more than doubles the area allowed per street frontage, a condition of approval prohibits the placement of an additional sign on Town Center Parkway unless the sign on Lake Drive is reduced to 32 square feet. The sign plan includes wall signage on the canopy fascia in lieu of the building itself, which includes only directional signage for the car wash. The signage on the canopy fascia meets the maximum area allowance which is 20% of the canopy fascia per side, with a maximum of two sides of the canopy having signage. Trash / Mechanical Equipment The building includes an integrated trash enclosure depicted on the east side of the building. The electrical transformer is shown on the west side of the building and therefore will have minimal visibility from th surrounding rights of way.
