not apply. 5. Trash is proposed to be handled in a covered enclosure attached to the building constructed of the same building materials. 6. The lighting plan must comply with the City's design standards that require site lighting to utilize downcast fixtures that conceal the source of light. Section 1005.09 details specific standards for automobile service stations. The following comments reference the standards included in this section: I. The site plan indicates that the entire surface, other than that taken by the structure and landscape area, will be surfaced with concrete or asphalt with concrete curb and gutter surrounding and defining the parking lot. 2. The drainage system has been reviewed by the Engineering Department and found to be adequate for the review of the conditional use permit application. Final details will need to be worked out at the time of building permit review. 3. All parking and service areas are defined by curb and gutter and are at least 5 feet from all property lines. 4. The pump islands are in excess of 25 feet from the property line. 5. County permits will be necessary for driveways located on County Road B (see traffic consultant's comments concerning these access points). 6. The sign package is subject to the sign code and the zoning code and is reviewed as a part of a ~parate sign permit a'ppli~~tion. No signage is permitted on the canopy. 7. The sale of other retail products will be conducted in compliance with the requirements and conditions for sales in B-3 districts. 8) CONDITIONAL USE CRITERIA: In addition to the design standards relating specifically to automobile service stations, Chapter 1013.01 of the City Code list 6 criteria to be reviewed when considering an application for a conditional use permit. These criteria include: I. The impact on traffic. 2. The impact on parks, streets, and other public utilities. 3. Compatibility of the site plan and internal traffic circulation, landscaping and structures with contiguous properties. 4. The impact of the use on the market values of contiguous properties. 5. Impact on the general health, safety, and welfare. 6. Compatibility with the City's Comprehensive Plan. The project is consistent with the 6 criteria. A motor fuel station has been in operation at this site since 1958. The intersection of Snelling Avenue and County Road B has retail development on all four quadrants. The intersection is signalized and designed to handle large traffic volumes. A convenience store/gas station is compatible with adjacent commercial properties. In staff's opinion, Improving the current conditions of the site will have a positive impact on the market value of contiguous properties and will not have any negative impact on the general health, 3
