Councilmember Blanchard asked when the delivery trucks will be arriving, as the residents had expressed concern with that issue. A representative from Super America explained the Super America delivery truck would come in the evening, once a week, and the gas truck would come more frequently, as the need was determined. He explained the majority of deliveries from the various vendors would be during day, and they could request the Super America truck come on Friday evenings, around 5:30 PM, as they have a run in that area at that time. Councilmember Quick stated he was concerned with the planned berming and topography of the property, and whether it would be adequate. Mr. Mueller showed what they have planned, and explained what the various plantings would be.

Councilmember Blanchard stated the Council has the authority to readdress the hours of operation in one year to see whether they are working, and asked if the Council could make changes to the berming then, if they felt it was necessary. Clerk /Administrator Pauley stated they could rewrite the development agreement now, to include that. Mayor Linke pointed out that once the other sites are developed, there will not be any other land available for Super America to use for berming, so they should address the issue now.
