Title
Weigel’s Peavine Location - Site Plan
Body
SUMMARY: Weigel’s is proposing a new gas station with diesel at the intersection of Peavine Road, Chestnut Hill Road, and E. First Street. The site is the current location of the Chestnut Hill Winery. The Weigel’s store will be 6,605 square feet with 50 parking spots. There are a proposed 8 gas locations and 6 large truck diesel pumps on the property to the rear of the store.
Due to the increase in traffic that will be generated by the development, the City did require Weigel’s to have a traffic study. The study has been completed and several improvements will need to be done. Those include some lane adjustments and widening to Peavine, Chestnut Hill, and E. First Street. A traffic signal will also be required for the intersection.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Due to the number of offsite improvements, Staff is recommending that approval of the site plan, but that the Certificate of Occupancy (CO) be withheld until the completion of the offsite improvements or a financial guarantee be provided to the City. The developer’s plan is to have all offsite improvements complete before requesting the CO.
Recommended Action
NECESSARY PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: Approve the site plan with a note stating the CO will not be provided until offsite improvements are complete or a financial guarantee is provided.
