September 15, 1970
Mr. Harry E. Marshall
City Clerk
Room 386 City Hall
Dear Sir:
This is written in response to the application of the
Standard Oil Company for a permit to reconstruct an existing
filling station on property located on the southeast corner
of Cleveland and Grand Avenues. This property is further
described as:
Lots 29, 30, 31, except the south 10 feet of
Lot 29, subject to an a11ey easement over the
south 10 feet thereof, Block 3, Rosedale Park
Addition.
This matter was considered at the August 6, 1970, Board
of Zoning meeting. The staff reported that the applicant
proposes to construct a new filling station building on the
site which has recently been enlarged. Revised plans received
August 20, 1970, meet required design standards and provide
the required 10-foot buffer. The Board discussed the problem
of proper landscaping of filling stations with Mr. Fred
Housenga, District Manager of Standard Oil. The lack of
adequate landscaping at the Standard Oil filling station at
Como and Raymond Avenues was noted.
After some discussion, it was the recommendation of the
Board of Zoning that this application be approved, subject to
the applicant complying with the landscaping commitment for a
similar station located at Como and Raymond Avenues. The motion
to recommend approval carried by a 5-0 vote.
Very ruly yours,

MINUTES OF THE PUBLIC HEARING BEFORE TEiE BOARD OF ZOA1I1�1G
on Thursday, August 6, L970, at 2:00 F,Me
PRESENT: Messrs. Ames, Gadler, Gauger, McPartlfn, and Mansur of the Board,
and Messrs. Brown and Sorenson, and Mrs. Frantzen of the staff.
DISCUSSION ON CAR-WASH APPLICA`TIONS
This discussion involved applications of John Je Walsh, Richard G. Snow, the
Standard Oil Company, and Pipe Line Ofl Company.
Mr. Ames noted he had received a letter frar.i the zonin� staff. requesting some
type of pracedure for handling car-wash applications. Mr. McPartlin said
different locations may necessitate several types of decisions concerning
£illing station operations and car wt�shes. Ms, Ames said many car washes do
not have the sequired 40 stacking spaces.
For clarification, Mr. Sosenson sa3d the John Jo Walsh applicstion was preceded
by an appeal from the 40-car requirement; 29 stacking spaces is the amount they
wi1L provide. On the Richard G. Snow matter, the filling s�ation is existing.
He applied for a car wash also; not � filling station remodel.ing showing 40�car
stacking spaces. On the three applications for the S�andard Oil Company, only
two involve car washes. The one at Grar_d and Cleve2and Avenues 3.s � aimple
remodeling of a f�Iling station, Pi�pe �.ine Oil Gompany has filed an appeal
along with their permit applica�ion. For tod�y's ineeting, i� is only the
permit that is being �onsidered, as a filling sta�ion remodelf�g.
Mr, McPartlin said he understands that by applying £or a one-bay car-was4i
operation, the applic�nt is alleviating �he necess�ty to foliow regular car-
wash requirements for a 40-car stacking space. He comanented that car washes
are a nuisance, and said ti�at the City CounciZ should adopt some rules of
procedure to foZlow regarding car-wasia applications .
Tn explanation, Mr. Soxenson said a fil�ing statioa� v�ry often has a car-wash
bay in it. Originally, it was set up as a h�nd-�;ash operation in the station.
A year ago the City Council said �hey shou�.d review the car-w3sh ordinance.
Mr. Sorenson noted that in both the a�.d and new Zoning �Code there sre no
provisions for accon�nodati.�g car washes of such different �ypes. He recoum►ended
that each �ype of opera�ion be looked at on an inci�vidu�l basis. Dif£er�nt
kinds include: one-ba,y, d�ive in ar�d b�sc��. out, driven out c:et �needing �
longer exit line to alloca tim� for "drip-ciryi.ng"), completeky self-service,
machine-operated (customers remain in car), etc. He noted that if the Zoning
Board feels st��king space is not adequat�, that �hey should recamm�end denial
of the permit. Mr. Ames said that different L-ypes of equipment are used--some
take 3 minutes, while others take 15 minutes. r4r. Gauger £eels some guic3el�.nes
should be established by the City Council. However, Mro Ame� noted t��t with
such a variety of car-e�ash operationa, 15-20 �y�e� of guideline� would be
needed to £acilitate �hem. Mr, Gadler nated that dI£fererar situstions m�y
arise due to the ares of the £illing station or car-wash site, wl�ether the
area is residential, coaanercial, etc. In rega�d to established guidelines,
Mr. McPartlin noted that perhaps some app�.�ca,nts would not fotlaw them.
Mr. Sorenson noted that the previous City Council considered the csr-wash
problem, and referred it back to the Zoning Board and staff £or review. Staff
feelings are that one-bay operstions inside a filliag station should be
considered on theiz individual merits as a filling station remodeling and not
a car-wash operation, since the filli�ag statfon remains the primsry use.

STANDARD OIL CQKPANY �#7015): An application for a permit to reconstruct an
existfng filliug station on property locatec3 on the southeast corner of
Cleveland and Grand Avenaes.
Mr. Sorenson suumiarized the s�aff report, a part of the file, noting that
the Tr�ffic En�ineer has reviewed �he plan and recaamiends approval. It is
reco�ended that a 14-foot bu££er be provided along the east pxoperty line,
and thet curb cuts be 26 feez onto Grand Aven�e.
Representing the applicant was Mr. Fred Housenga, District Man�ger for the
company. He noted that �he application is for a comple�e rebuildiztg of the
station. Fol.lowing a question £rom Mr. Gadler, P�'Ir. Housenga reglied that
c+n. khe subject site, there isn`t neuch room for t�rees. He suggested that
proper iandscaping of this st�tian, as we�I as otherg of concern, be included
in the app.rov�l of the permit. He noted he has tried twi�e to obtain funds
for landscaping, but to no evatl.
Mr. Mansur moved for appro�al of this pexmit, subject to complying with the
landscapi�.g com�nitment for �he atation located at Camo and �yueond Avenues.
Th� cuotio�a was seconded by Mr. McPartlin, and car.ried unanimously.
