Resolution to Approve Shell Service Station/Convenience Store PUD Site Plan, 2679 Ann Arbor-Saline Road (CPC Recommendation: Approval - 9 Yeas and 0 Nays)
Memorandum
Attached is a resolution to approve the Shell Service Station/Convenience Store PUD Site Plan. Approval of this resolution will allow for the construction of an addition to an existing convenience store.
Petition Summary:
· The petitioner proposes constructing a 2,189-square foot addition onto the north and east sides of the existing 1,000-square foot convenience store and converting the existing 900-square foot car wash into retail area, for a new total of 4,089-square feet.
· The parking lot will be rearranged to accommodate required interior parking lot landscaping and add 7 spaces, for a new total of 16.
· Since no supplemental regulations were required as part of the original PUD approval, supplemental regulations have been created as part of this petition.
The City Planning Commission, at its meeting of April 17, 2012, recommended approval of this request. The petitioner addressed issues raised by Planning Commission by agreeing to move outdoor sales and display of merchandise from the front of the building to the side and rear of the building without blocking any pedestrian connections. This change is reflected in the PUD Supplemental Regulations.
