Request is for permission to convert 675 square feet of a 2100 square foot building from service station use to convenience store use, 760 Shelburne Road according to plans submitted. The Board of Adjustment finds as follows: 1. This project consists of converting 675 square feet of a 2100 square foot building from service station use to convenience store use. A portion of this building is currently being used as a convenience store. The two (2) existing service bays will be converted to the convenience store use. 2. This property located at 760 Shelburne Road lies within the C 1 District. 3. The proposed use complies with the stated purpose of the C 1 District which is "to encourage the location of general retail... uses." 4. It is not expected that the proposed conversion would have an adverse affect on any existing or planned community facility. 5. The area is characterized by restaurants, service stations, convenience stores and other small and large retail establishments. The character of this area would not be adversely affected by the proposed conversion. 6. The ITE Trip Generation manual indicates that the conversion of the auto service space to convenience store space will not increase traffic generation since traffic for this type of use is based on the number of fueling positions. No additional fueling positions proposed so therefore no adverse affect on traffic is expected. 7. This application complies with the bylaws in effect. 8. There is no utilization of renewable energy resources in the vicinity to be affected by this proposal. 9. It is not expected that the general public health and welfare would be adversely affected by the proposed conversion. ORDER The conditional use permit to allow the conversion of 675 square feet of service station use to convience store use is hereby GRANTED.
