a. The hardship is related to the shared circulation and coordinated development for the
Holiday Stationstore and the office buildings to the east (currently under constriction).
When the property originally developed, the developer proposed the shared access to the
properties in order to accommodate the grades and keep the properties' access point as far
from the entrance to Highway 169 as possible. Because of the requirement that accessory
carwashes be attached to principal buildings, there are no other potential conforming
locations on this site.
b. The conditions of shared development are challenging to the site and not generally
applicable to other commercial properties zoned C-3.
c. The variance would allow a reasonable use of the land and would not be detrimental to the
public welfare or injurious to other land or property values in the neighborhood. It would
also not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or increase the
congestion of the public streets.
d. The request is the minimum action necessary to eliminate the hardship.

rp olect.

color of the rock face block stripe.

of the building.
f. Revise the plan to include a ten -foot bituminous trail constricted from the shared
driveway to the east property line.
g. Submit a noise study showing consistency with Chapter 2025 of City Code (Noise).

i. Revise the plans to indicate a three-foot sidewalk located between the building and the

and vacate the existing easements.
1. Revise the plans to include fire lane signs in approved locations.

solenoid device is required to be connected between the fire sprinkler system and the site
domestic water supply.
b. All signage shall comply with the Section 21155 of the Zoning Ordinance.

the applicant shall submit a reproducible (8'/2" x 11") site/building "as built" fire protection
plan.

f. The permit is subject to all applicable codes, regulations and ordinances, and violation
thereof shall be grounds for revocation.
