Kwik Trip – 159th Street Page 9 (d) Operation of the carwash shall not disrupt or degrade the quality of service provided by the municipal water system to other users or for fire flow. The carwash will not disrupt the municipal water system for other users or fire flow. Sec. 90-219 of City Code outlines performance standards for convenience stores and gas stations with prepared food and/or motor fuel sales, grocery, food operations, and/or convenience motor fuel with no vehicle service or repair. These performance standards include: (1) Convenience/deli food is of the take-out type only and that no provision for seating or consumption on the premises is provided. Furthermore, that the enclosed area devoted to such activity, use and merchandise shall not exceed 15 percent of the gross floor area. The site plan generally meets these requirements, except that the interior floor plan shows a small countertop seating area with six seats. Staff is comfortable with this seating area, since its overall footprint is minimal and the only food that can be consumed there is individually packaged and take-out type, meaning that dine-in services resembling a restaurant will not be involved. (2) The storage, preparation and service of food items are subject to specific written sanitary requirements based upon the applicable state and county regulations. The applicant is responsible for obtaining any necessary permits from the state and county health departments. (3) The proximate area and location of space devoted to nonautomotive merchandise sale shall be specified in the application and in the conditional use permit. The interior of the convenience store is primarily dedicated to the sale of nonautomotive merchandise. Staff will work with the applicant to determine approximate areas and location of automotive merchandise. (4) The off-street loading space and building access for delivery of goods shall be separate from customer parking and entrances shall not cause conflicts with customer vehicles and pedestrian movements. There is a separate loading zone on the north side of the building that will not cause conflicts with customer vehicles and pedestrian movements. (5) The hours of operation shall be limited to 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., unless amended by the council as part of the conditional use permit. The applicant is proposing hours of operation to be 24 hours, which is requested as part of the conditional use permit. The application meets this standard with approval of the hours of operation in the CUP.
