Jett, Jr. George Jett's Gas and Service Station 3101 West Markham Street Lots 1 and 2, Block 3, C. S. Stifft's Addition All vehicular use areas which were in existence prior to the effective date of this article may continue in a nonconforming status until such time as a building permit is granted to enlarge or reconstruct a structure on the property exceeding ten (10) percent of its existing gross floor area. At such time, ten (10) percent of the existing vehicular use area shall be brought into compliance with the provisions of this article. This shall continue on a graduated scale until reaching one hundred (100) percent of the required landscaping. 2. It is recognized that unique circumstances may exist in conforming with these standards. However, in no case may the staff waive more than twenty-five (25) percent of these requirements. VARIANCE REQUESTED: An exemption from the minimum twenty-eight (28) percent landscaping upgrade toward compliance with the Landscape Ordinance. FINDINGS: Recently, Mr. and Mrs. Jett purchased the service station which was formerly known as the Bushmiaers Service Station. Since that time, Mr. Jett has upgraded the exterior of the existing structure and cleaned out the storage holding area in the rear of the property. Mr. Jett would now like to increase the existing structure thirty-seven (37) percent with an additional service bay. However, the building expansion would require a twenty-eight (28) to thirty-seven (37) percent landscaping upgrade. Mr. Jett has agreed to screen the storage and dumpster area with a 6 feet high opaque wooden good neighbor fence. The site is covered in solid concrete. STAFF RE NUgENDATI N: Considering Mr. Jett has agreed to provide screening of the storage and dumpster area and the site is covered with thick concrete and has vehicular traffic visibility and maneuverability limitations, staff recommends approval of this request. 44 I" = 20' W W v Q Y a TO H N S ON STREET Concrete �.
