PlanningBoard | 2008-05-27 | 2 | Mr. Thomas provided an update on future agenda items. b. Zoning Administrator Report There was no report. 7. ORAL COMMUNICATION: None. 8. CONSENT CALENDAR: 8-A. UP06-0010 - 1310 Central Avenue. Required Six Month Review of Use Permit for the extended hours of operation for the Alameda Valero Gas Station. The subject property is located in the R-4 (Neighborhood Residential) Zoning District. (DV) Mr. Thomas presented the staff report. Staff recommended that the Planning Board accept the Six-Month Review and find that Alameda Valero Gasoline was in conformance with the conditions of the Use Permit. The station would continue under the terms of the Use Permit, and no further reviews would be required. Any violations would initiate Code Enforcement actions, up to and including revocation of the Use Permit. The public hearing was opened. Mr. Phil Gravem, 1344 Sherman Street, spoke in support of this project. He noted that he lived across the street from this gas station. He noted that the shortened hours had been beneficial, and added that he was concerned about cars that were parked outside the bays and on the streets. He stated that things had generally been going well. Ms. Patricia Kinzel, 1307 Central Avenue, noted that she was undecided about this issue. She thanked Barbara Price of Public Works for changing the timing on the lights. Mr. Luon Zergser, applicant, Alameda Valero, 1310 Central Avenue, noted that some customers' cars were parked on the street when they did not come to pick them up before the station closed. He did not want to lock the cars in the garage in the event the customers came after hours for their cars. In response to an inquiry by Board member McNamara why some of the cars were parked partially out of the garage, Mr. Zergser replied that because of the configuration of the smog check testing equipment, the rear of the cars being tested must be outside the garage. He noted that other than the smog check, no servicing of the cars was performed outside the garage. In response to an inquiry by Board member Ezzy Ashcraft whether he could post a sign asking the customers not to park on the street, Mr. Zergser replied that he could do that. Acting President Kohlstrand noted that the condition prohibiting any cars being parked outside was almost impossible to meet. Page 2 of 6 | PlanningBoard/2008-05-27.pdf |
