PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> 2 APRIL 20 , 1993 <br /> 3 PAGE 6 <br /> 4 <br /> 5 <br /> 6 Mr . Sarna, the owner of this service station/grocery store, <br /> 7 wants to install a canopy over his gas pumps . His purpose in <br /> 8 installing this canopy is for the convenience of his patrons <br /> 9 in inclement weather. <br /> 10 <br /> 11 Staff included a drawing of Mr. Sarna ' s proposed plan in the <br /> 12 agenda packet . The proposed location for the canopy would <br /> 13 require variances of approximately 25 ' and 29 ' on two corners <br /> 14 of it . Staff also cautioned that there may be difficulty in <br /> 15 proving hardship. It was noted that granting of these <br /> 16 variances could be setting a precedent where other owners <br /> 17 would want canopies . <br /> 18 <br /> 19 Commissioner Madden observed that placement of this canopy <br /> 20 would put patrons farther from the store and they may be <br /> 21 incovenienced. Mr . Sarna stated that they would not be <br /> 22 standing still when they were coming into the store. He felt <br /> 23 this canopy would cover patrons while they were standing still <br /> 24 pumping gas and protect them from the elements. <br /> 25 <br /> Chair Faust felt the size of the canopy was very large and may <br /> be overbearing. Commissioner Werenicz suggested that the <br /> 28 placement of the canopy could be slightly changed to enhance <br /> 29 its appearance and require less of a variance. <br /> 30 <br /> 31 After some discussion, Chair Faust noted that five Commission <br /> 32 members favored the canopy with the understanding that some <br /> 33 modification could be done to the width of it and maybe a <br /> 34 slight turning. It was agreed that the two variances would <br /> 35 still be required even with the recommended changes . <br /> 36 <br /> 37 <br /> 38 B. Concept Review - Consideration of Conditional Use Permit <br /> 39 for Fun Center at St . Anthony Lanes <br /> 40 <br /> 41 Mr. Dave Logan, owner and operator of the St . Anthony Fun <br /> 42 Center, is considering the purchase of the St . Anthony Lanes . <br /> 43 The purchase is contingent upon the ability to obtain a <br /> 44 conditional use permit to allow an arcade (up to 35 machines ) <br /> 45 at the St . Anthony Lanes location. He is interested in <br /> 46 receiving an indication of the likelihood of obtaining a <br /> 47 conditional use permit which will aid him in his decision <br /> 48 regarding the purchase of the bowling lanes building. <br /> 49 <br /> 50 <br /> • <br />
