Backl!round Bruce Kath is proposing to construct a gas station/convenience store with a car wash at 1912 Lexington Avenue. The site is in the southeast quadrant of the intersection of Lexington Avenue and Roselawn Avenue. The site is currently occupied by Ace's 66 Service Station and automobile repair and a single story building at 1080 Roselawn Avenue, currently occupied by a real estate firm. The service station building was constructed about 1932 and the other commercial building was constructed in about 1956. The property is bordered on the north by Roselawn Avenue, on the west by Lexington Avenue, on the south by 22 housing units within 2 apartment buildings, and on the east by single family residential land uses. Across (north) Roselawn Avenue is Suburban Hardware and the newly approved 16 townhomes of Rose Villa. Across Lexington Avenue (west) is the ReMax Realty building. 2. Develooment Summary The property under consideration is zoned B-3 General Business, B-2 Retail Business, and B-1 Limited Business. An automobile service station and car wash is a use permitted by conditional use permit in the B-2 and B-3 districts but is not permitted in the B-1 district. The applicant is requesting a rezoning of the entire site to B-2 Retail Business and a conditional use permit for a service station store with a car wash. The project will involve the demolition and removing of the existing structures and tanks on the site and the construction of a new 6500 square foot service station store and car wash. The car wash would occupy approximately 2000 square feet of the 6500 square foot building. There will be no automobile repair facility on the site. The proposed building is designed to accommodate future expansion of approximately 1550 square feet to expand the station store to add a compatible retail tenant space. This space could potentially be a restaurant also. The building will be slab on grade masonry construction with brick and rock face block exterior and an asphalt shingle hip roof. A retention pond will be constructed in the eastern portion of the site to handle storm water runoff A 6 foot cedar screen fence is proposed along the east and south sides of the property to screen the property from the adjacent residential uses. Access to the site will be via accesses on Lexington Avenue and two on Roselawn 1
