We offer the following comments: General: The site plan proposes to develop a 3,498 square foot convenience store with gasoline pumps, a 3,900 square foot car wash, and a 1,200 square foot fast food facility on Lot 2, Block 1, . of Sunfish Commons. The site is located at the intersection of U.S. Highway 10 and Sunfish Lake Blvd. (County Road #57). Zoning: The site is zoned B-3 Highway Business. City Code permits a convenience store with gasoline pumps, car wash, and fast food activites in the B-3 District. Lot Coverage: The subject property is 1.6 acres (71,784 square feet) in size. A portion of the property is located within the Critical Pdver Overlay District. and therefore subject to an impervious surface restriction. In April of 2001 the Board of Adjustment granted a variance to the 30% impervious surface restriction allowing a maximum of 69% impervious surface on the portion of the property located within the Critical River Overlay District. The site plan indicates a total of 67.9% impervious surface coverage on the portion of the property located within the overlay district. City Code restricts building coverage to 35% or 25,124 square feet in this case. The proposed size of the multi-use facility is 8,598 square feet, which equates to a building coverage of .approximately 11.9%. -311-
