Page 4 of 16 line is at 50 feet. The Applicant has shown that the building would be constructed with an 80.8- foot setback. The Applicant has requested flexibility due to the narrowness of the site and the layout of the building. The Applicant states that with the building at the setback line, the exit drive from the tunnel would terminate across from an existing driveway median, creating an unsafe and impossible condition for customers to turn left and re-enter the site to utilize the vacuums. To achieve the 50 foot building setback, the exit driveway would also encroach into the twenty (20) foot parking and landscape setback. Visual of building at 50 foot building setback B.
