This is just a change in use from one retail use to another. He noted that all the land around the building is owned by others. PLANNING COMMISSION 12 JUNE 1990 page 8 Mr. Carroll said the City of Burlington helped create the Odell Parkway access problem and turned the lot into a free-for-all. He said they would add some improvements for safety. He said when the bank drive -up window goes, it would be logical to do something to solve traffic and circulations problems. He added they have improved fire access by removing one lane of parking and making the remaining parking diagonal. Citgo has a right of way in front of the building. The City Planner wants it cleared off, and the developer has no objection. Ms. Pritchard asked if the applicant will be opening Odell Parkway. Mr Carroll said they will not and have no right to as they don't own it. Ms. Pritchard raised the problem of traffic in the East Woods neighborhood. Mr Burgess noted a request from the City Council to assess the impact of opening Odell Parkway but noted it is not the current applicant's problem. Larry Williams, representing the Davis Company, noted there has been a revised alignment of the access which shows curves now rounded. They prefer this alignment.
