RE: Albertville — Letter of Denial of Little Duke's / Coborn's Conditional Use Permit
Amendment
NAC File: 163.01 — 05.32
Dear Mr. Wahlin:
On January 17, 2006 the Albertville City Council denied your request to amend the
conditional use permit/planned unit development to install a fifth gas pump at your Coborn's
property at 5398 LaCentre Avenue. The denial was based on the following findings of
Resolution No. 2006-06:
1. The applicant currently has reasonable use of the property. Therefore, denying the
Conditional Use Permit shall not deny the applicant reasonable use of their property.
2. The video store, retail store and liquor store, located at the north end of the building,
have a combined square footage of 7,470 square feet. Based upon this square
footage a total of 34 stalls are required. Currently, the applicant has 17 parking stalls
located on the northern side of the building. The site is currently underparked by these
standards. The expansion of an additional pumping station would result in an increase
in the parking stall demand in an already underparked site area.
3. The introduction of a fifth gas pump will negatively contribute to existing traffic
congestion in an area of the site that is underparked and must also accommodate
truck deliveries to the building.
If you have any questions or comments with regards to this issue, please feel free to contact
me.
Sincerely,
WnBrixiu
