EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
V A-2007-AR-12668, B&B Cash Grocery Stores, Inc., represented by Charlie
Martin, requesting a Variance of 17 feet to replace an automobile service station
canopy that was destroyed by Hurricane Wilma; and a Variance of seven feet to
relocate two fuel pump dispensers. The 0.81-acre subject property is zoned Village
Residential (VR) and General Commercial (C-4)/Main Street Overlay Subdistrict
(MSOSD) and is located at 401 1st Street South, South Immokalee Heights Unit,
Section 4, Township 47 South, Range 29 East, Collier County, Florida
OBJECTIVE:
To have the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) consider the above-referenced Variance
petition and render a decision pursuant to Section 9.04.04 of the Land Development Code
(LDC) in order to ensure that the project is in harmony with all applicable codes and
regulations and that the community's interests are maintained.
CONSIDERATIONS:
The petitioner proposes two Variances from Subsection 5.05.05.B. of the Collier County
Land Development Code (LDC), Automobile Service Stations, to pernlit the rebuilding of
a gas dispenser island canopy that was destroyed by Hurricane Wilma (and subsequently
dismantled) and the relocation of the station's two fuel pump dispensers (which are being
replaced to meet the state Department of Environmental Protection's mandated
environmental requirements for 2009) with 26-foot and 43-foot front yard setbacks,
respectively, instead of the required 50- foot setback.
The subject property is comprised of six lots of equal size (as shown on the site plan
attached to the resolution). The three eastern parcels are zoned Village Residential (VR)
and the three western parcels are zoned General Commercial (C-4) and Main Street
Overlay Subdistrict (MSOSD). The entire site also falls within the Well field Risk
Management Special Treatment Overlay Zone (ST/W-4). The building on the site, which
according to the Property Appraiser's records has existed since 1972, straddles the
boundary between the two zoning districts. The portion for which the new pumps and
canopy are proposed is the C-4 zoned half 0 f the site.
The site plan, dated January 29,2008, illustrates the location of the existing convenience
store and the proposed gasoline pump islands and canopy. As shown on the plan, the
property is bordered by three roadways: lmmokalee Road (aka CR 846 or First Street
South) to the east, Delaware Avenue to the north, and Second Street South to the west.
Because of its location along three roadways, the LDC considers the site to have three
front yards. LDC Section 5.05.05, Table B, requires front yard setbacks for service
stations to be a minimum of 50 feet. As illustrated by the plan, the front yard abutting
lmmokalee Road would be the only yard unable to meet the required setbacks as the
proposed canopy's support columns and the dispenser pumps would be clearly beyond
Agenda Item No. 17 A

Page 2 of 43
the required setback of the site's Second Street South and Delaware Avenue frontages;
and far exceed the 40-foot setback requirement for side yards relative to the adjoining
residential property to the south. As such, the applicant is requesting front yard setback
Variances of 17 feet for the overhead canopy and seven feet for the gas dispenser islands.
As part of the proposed changes. the applicant would also remove and replace the
existing underground storage tanks and associated piping as mandated by the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection to meet 2009 safety standards. Additionally, the
applicant would like to: decrease the site's overall impervious surface area by removing
approximately ten percent of the existing asphalt; install irrigation and landscape buffers;
and construct a new dumpster enclosure, an ADA-compliant access ramp, and a 6- foot
concrete wall on the site's southern boundary (to conceal the building's existing
refrigeration equipment from the existing single family homes adjacent to it).
Staff's search of properties in the vicinity has revealed that two similar Variances have
been approved by the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) in the immediate neighborhood.
Both of these Variances were on VR-zoned parcels just north of Delaware Avenue along
Third Street South. One of them pennitted a 20-foot front yard setback Variance for a
church (Resolution No. 05-135); and the other permitted a 14-foot front yard Variance for
a single-family home (Resolution No. 93-528).
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this Variance petition would have no fiscal impact on Collier County.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN IGMP) IMPACT:
Approval of this Variance would not affect or change the requirements of the GMP.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING IMPACT:
Approval of this Variance would have no affordable housing impact.
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES:
There are no environmental issues associated with this Variance.
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL IEAC) RECOMMENDATION:
The EAC did not review this petition as they do not normally hear Variance petitions.
COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION (CCPC) RECOMMENDATION:
The CCPC heard pctition VA-2007-AR-12668 on April 3. 2008, and believing that
approving the Variance would not be injurious to the neighborhood or detrimental to the
public welfare, voted unanimously (8-0) to forward this petition to the BZA with a
recommendation of approval, subject to the following conditions:
A.genda Item ["0. 17/\
May 13, 2003
Page 3 of 43
1. A 7.0- foot Variance shall be permitted for the two gas pump islands, limited to the
front yard encroachment along the property's First Street South (CR 846) frontage,
as depicted in the applicant's master plan, included as Exhibit A;
2. A l7.0-foot Variance shall be permitted for the gas pump canopy, limited to the
front yard encroachment along the property's First Street South (CR 846) frontage,
as depicted in the applicant's master plan, included as Exhibit A.
3. The applicant shall sign a hold harmless agreement with the Transportation
Division's Right-of-Way Acquisition Department within 90 days of approval for all
new structures related to the Variance application that would be impacted by future
capacity improvements adjacent to the site.
(N.B. The gas canopy setback above is deliberately different than the one in the Staff
Report, as at the hearing the CCPC requested that it be increased to ensure that adequate
room to rebuild the structure was provided.)
Because this decision was unanimous, and no letters of objection have been received
from the community, this item is being placed on the summary agenda.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS;
The petitioner is requesting a Variance fi'om the setback requirement with respect to gas
station canopy and two dispenser islands. The granting of such Variances is permitted
under LDC Section 9.04.02. The attached staff report and recommendations of the
Planning Commission are advisory only and are not binding on you. Decisions regarding
Variances are quasi-judicial, and all testimony given must be under oath. Petitioners
have the burdcn to prove that the proposed Variance is consistent with all the criteria set
forth below, and you may question the petitioners or staff to assure yourself that the
necessary criteria have been satisfied. Should you consider denying the Variance, to
assure that your decision is not later found to be arbitrary, discriminatory or
unreasonable, the denial must be based upon competent, substantial evidence that the
proposal does not meet one or more of the listed criteria below. Approval of this request
requires three affirmative votes of the Board. In granting any Variance, the BZA may
prescribe appropriate conditions and safeguards in confonnity with the zoning code,
including, but not limited to, reasonable time limits within which action for which the
Variance is required shall be begun or completed. or both. Violation of such conditions
and safeguards, when made a part of the tenns under which the Variance is granted,
would be deemed a violation of the zoning code.
Criteria for Varianees
1. There are special conditions and circumstances existing which are peculiar to the
location, size, and characteristics of the land, structure, or building involved.
Agenda Item No. 17 A
May 13, 2003
Page 4 of 43
2. There are special conditions and circumstances which do not result from the action of
the applicant, such as prc-existing conditions relative to the property which is the
subject of the Variance request.
3. A literal interpretation of the provisions of the LDC work unnecessary and undue
hardship on the applicant or create practical difficulties on the applicant.
4. The Variance, if granted, will be the minimum variance that will make possible the
reasonable use of the land, building, or structure and which promote standards of
health, safety, or welfare.
5. Granting the Variance requested will not confer on the petitioner any special privilege
that is denied by these zoning regulations to other lands, buildings, or structures in the
same zoning district.
6. Granting the Variance will be in harmony with the intent and purpose of the LDC, and
not be injurious to the neighborhood, or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.
7. There are natural conditions or physically induced conditions that ameliorate the goals
and objectives of the regulation, such as natural preserves, lakes, golf course, etc.
8. Granting the Variance will be consistent with the GMP.
The proposed Resolution was prepared by the County Attorney's Office and is sufficient
for Board action. -JAK
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of Zoning Appeals approve Petition V A-2007-AR-
12668, subject to the CCPC conditions of approval that have been incorporated into the

also falls within the Well field Risk Management Special Treatment Overlay Zone (ST/W.4). The
building on the site, which according to the Property Appraiser's records has existed since 1972,
straddles the boundary between the two zoning districts. The portion for which the new pumps
and canopy are proposed is the half of the site zoned C.4.
The site plan on the preceding page, entitled "Handy Food Store No. 92 Petroleum System
Upgrade, UST Installation Plan," prepared by Florida Geotechnical Engineering, Inc. and dated
January 29, 2008, illustrates the location of the existing convenience store and the proposed
gasoline pump islands and canopy. As shown on the plan, the property is bordered by three
roadways: Immokalee Road (aka CR 846 or First Street South) to the east, Delaware Avenue to
the north, and Second Street South to the west. Because of its location along three roadways, the
LDC considers the site to have three front yards. LDC Section 5.05,05, Table B requires front
yard setbacks for service stations to be a minimum of 50 feet. As illustrated by the plan, the front
yard abutting Immokalce Road would be the only yard unable to meet the required setbacks as
the proposed canopy's support columns and the dispenser pumps would clearly be beyond the
required setback of the site's Second Street South and Delaware Avenue fi'ontages; and far
exceed the 40-foot setback requirement for side yards relative to the adjoining residential
property to the south. As such, the applicant is requesting front yard setback Variances of seven
feet for both the overhead canopy (as measured from the support columns, not the edge of the
overhang) and gas dispenser islands.
As part of the proposed changes, the applicant would also remove and replace the existing
underground storage tanks and associated piping as mandated by the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection to meet 2009 safety standards. Additionally, the applicant would like
to: decrease the site's overall impervious surface area by removing approximately ten percent of
the existing asphalt; install irrigation and landscape buffers; and construct a new dumpster
enclosure, an ADA-compliant access ramp, and a 6-foot concrete wall on the site's southern
boundary (to conceal the building's cxisting rcfrigcration equipment from the existing single
family homes adjacent to it).
Staff's search of properties in the vicinity has revealed that two similar Variances have been
approved by the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) in the immediate neighborhood. Both of these
Variances were on VR-zoncd parcels just north of Delaware Avenue along Third Street South.
One of them permitted a 20-foot front yard setback Variance for a church (Resolution No. OS.
135); and the other permitted a l4-foot front yard Variancc for a single.family home (Resolution
No. 93-528).

GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN (GMP) CONSISTENCY:
The subject property is designated Commerce Center Mixed Use District, as identified on the
Immokalee Area Master Plan (lAMP) of the GMP. The purpose of this designation is to create a
major activity center that services the entire Immokalee Urban Designated Area and surrounding
agricultural areas, and encourages commercial uses consistent with the Commercial Professional
and General Office (C-l) through General Commercial (C-4) Zoning Districts. The propelty is
also within the MSOSD boundaries, which encourages development and redevelopment that
enhances and beautifies the downtown Inmlokalee Main Street area through flexible design and
development standards.
The GMP does not address individual Variance requests but focuses on the larger issue of the
actual use, As previously noted, the subject Variances are sought to allow a seven-foot reduction
of the 50-foot front yard setback requirement for an automobile service station canopy and
gasoline pump islands. As thc commercial use on the subject site is consistent with the C-4
Zoning District, it is an authorized use in the Commerce Center Mixed Use District and,
therefore, deemed consistent with the lAMP.
ANALYSIS:
Section 9.04.01 of the LDC gives the Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) the authority to grant
Variances. The CCPC is advisory to the BZA and utilizes the provisions of Subsection 9,04.03
A. through H., in bold font below, as general guidelines to assist in making a recommendation of
approval or dcnial. Staff has analyzed this pctition relative to these provisions, and offcrs the
following responses:

a. Are there special conditions and circumstances existing, which are peculiar to the
location, size and characteristics of the land, structurc or building involvcd?
Yes. As previously noted, the subject site has dual zoning, Because only the eastem half is
presently eligible for commercial uses, the applicant is restricted to this portion of the site
to relocate the pumps and their associated canopy. This constraint is further complicated by
the fact that the site has three roadways frontages instead of one (or even just two), which
triggers the more stringent 50-foot setbacks on three sides of the property instead of the
more typical 40-foot setback requirement for gasoline servicc station side yards per LDC
Section 5.05.05. In fact, if the propelty's only front yard were Delaware Avenue, which is
the street both the building and its cntrance are oriented towards (and, therefore, its
effective "front"), Variallces for the dispenser pump islands and canopy would not even be
needed, Neveltheless, the locations the applicant has chosen for the ncw pumps and
canopy are a full 19 feet further from the propelty's existing setbacks along the site's
lmmokalee Road frontage. As such, if these Variances were approved, it would be a
considerable improvement in terms of augmenting the existing (or previous, in the case of
the dismantled canopy) setbacks,
b. Are there special conditions and circumstances, which do not result from the action of
the applicant such as prc-existing conditions relative to the property, which is the
subject of the Variance request?
Yes. As mentioned, the Propelty Appraiser's office confirmed the service station's
construction in 1972, at which time the zoning regulations only required ten-foot front yard
setbacks for accessory structures in the C-4 Zoning District. Furthe1111Ore, half the propelty
was rezoned by the County from the C-4 Zoning District to the VR Zoning District in 1991
(Ordinance No, 91-72, Attachmcnt 1), a full 19 years after the station's construction, in an
attempt to bring celtain properties in the Immokalee area into better conformance with the
redrawn district boundaries of the amended lAMP. As a result of this process, a portion of
the service station became a legally non-conforming use, thereby restricting it to the
provisions of LDC Section 9.03.02, Requirements for Continuation of NoncO/?formities,
and precluding it from making any site alterations to its VR-zoncd side.
c. Will a literal interpretation of thc provisions of this zoning code work unnecessary
and undue hardship on the applicant or create practical difficulties for the applicant?
No. If the Variances were denied, the applicant would still be able to replace the pumps
and canopy in their existing locations. (N.B. Although LDC Subsection 9.03,03.B,2 states
thc following, this language does not apply to service stations: "[if] any nonconforming
structure or nonconforming pOltion of a structure [is] destroyed by any means to an extent
of morc than fifty (50) percent of its actual rcplacement cost at time of construction... it
shall not be reconstructed except in conformity with the provisions of the LDC," This
exemption for service stations is due to the fact that, at thc time of the rewriting of the new
[current] version, the LOe was supposed to take into account the fact that long-existing
scrvicc stations would most Iikcly never be able to meet the more restrictive gas station
standards being proposed and, thereforc, provided language to cxcmpt them, However, it
should be noted that the setbacks proposed with the subject petition are a vast

improvement over the existing/fonner ones, as the new pumps and canopy would be set
back 19 feet (44 percent) further from lmmokalee Road than the current ones, where they
could be rebuilt.
d. Will the VaI'lances, if granted, be the minimum Variances that will make possiblc the
reasonable use of the land, building or structure and which promote standards of
health, safety and welfare?
Yes. The Variances requested would be the minimum to make possible the reasonable use
of the gas pumps and their associated canopy. Since the applicant's moving the aceessory
structures is limited to the C-4 pOltion of the site, l"elocating them somewhere along the
site's lmmokalee Road frontage is the only viable option; and working within these narrow
space constraints, the structures have been positioned on the site and oriented in a way that
requires the fewest number of needed Variances from the BZA while still providing for the
safe and efficient tl"avcl of customer vehicles. As previously noted, the proposed design
would actually enhance the standards of health, safety and welfare by ameliorating the
deficient setbacks currently on the site. However, if the Variances were not approved, the
petitioner would still have reasonable use of the land.
e. Will granting the Variances confer on the applicant any special privilege that is
denied by these zoning regulations to other lands, buildings, or structures in the same
zoning district?
Yes. A Variance by definition confers some dimensional relief from the zoning regulations
specific to a site. However, as noted on page two of this report, two similar Variances have
been gl"anted in the vicinity,
f. Will granting the Variances be in harmony with the gcnc.-al intent and purpose of this
Land Development Code, and not be injurious to the neighborhood, 01' otherwise
detrimental to the public welfare?
Yes. The proposed Variances would allow the applicant to improve the cun-ent setbacks for
two accessory uses on the subject property while performing state-mandated safety
upgrades to the site's gasoline pumps. In addition to these improvements, the applicant is
proposing to: decrease the overall impervions surface area by ten percent by removing
U1mccessary asphalt; install new landscape buffers and an irrigation system per LDC
standards; enelosc the site's dumpster; provide an ADA-compliant access ramp to the
building; and erect a 6-foot concrete wall 011 the site's southern boundary to conceal the
building's existing refrigeration equipment Ii-mn the adjacent single-family homes. Thcsc
improvements are all eonsistcnt with the MSOSD of the LOC, which encourages
development and redevelopment that enhances and beautilles the downtown lmmokalee
Main Street area through flexible design and development standards. As previously noted,
the property is also located within the ST/W-4 Zone, which area is to be protected from the
discharge or accidcntal release of certain contaminants or hazardous products. As such, the
applicant will be required to comply with the provisions of LDC Section 3.06.00,
Groundwater Protection. LDC Subsection 3.06,12.1.2 specifically requires that all
nonresidential development involving the generation or storage of hazardous waste at or
above the 250 gallon threshold for liquids comply with the following:

a. No hazardous waste shall be dischargcd or rcleascd to any storm water treatmcnt
system.
b. No hazardous waste shall be discharged or released to anyon-site sewage disposal
system not permitted for industrial or manufacturing use.
c. No hazardous waste shall be discharged or released to any wastewater treatment
system not permitted for industrial waste.
d, No hazardous waste shall be discharged or released to the surface of the land or into
any water constituting or connecting to waters of the state as defined in Chapter
403, Florida Statutes.
e. All hazardous waste shall be retained on-site until disposed of in accordance with
applicable law.
f. All hazardous waste shall be stored in rainproof and leak proof containers.
g. Discharges or accidental release of hazardous waste exceeding fifty (50) gallons
shall be reported to the County within forty-eight (48) hours of discovery, The
report shall indicate the date, time, waste discharged or released, control measures
used, quantity of waste discharged or released, and disposition of recovered waste,
g. Are there natural conditions or physically induced conditions that ameliorate the
goals and objectives of the I'egullltion such liS nllturlll preserves, IlIkes, golf courses,
etc.?
Yes, the subject site is separated from the adjacent uses on three of its sides by roadways.
Across Delaware Avenue to the nOlth is another commercial usc on a similarly VR-zoned
lot and a vacant C-4-zoned parcel. To the west, across Second Street South, are a church
and a single-family home that are both zoned YR. To mitigate the impacts of the service
station on these uses, the applicant is proposing a Type D buffer along all of the site's
roadway frontages (see "Landscape Plan," Attachment 2). To the south, the propelties
immediately abutting the site are developed with single-family homes, one zoned C-4 and
the other zoned YR. The applicant proposes to construct an approximately 6S-foot long,
six-foot high masonry wall to join an existing six-foot high wall on the VR-zoned property
and an existing I.S-foot high wall on the C-4-zoned property to obscure the building's
existing refrigeration equipment from view of tbe homes. A ten-foot wide minimum Type
B buffer, as shown on the Landscape Plan, would be provided adjacent to these walls to
diminish the visual impacts of the service station.
h. Will granting the Variances be consistent with the Growth Managemcnt Plan (GMP)'!
Approval of this Variance petition will not affect or change the rcquirements of the Growth
Management Plan. As previously noted, a gasoline service station is an authorized use in
the Commerce Center Mixed Use District of the lAMP.
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL (EAC) RECOMMENDATION:
The EAC does not normally hear Variance petitions and did not hear this one.

NATURE OF. PETITION
Provide a detailed explanation of the request including what structures are existing and
what is proposed: the amount of encroachment proposed using numbers, I.e. reduce
front setback from 25' to 18'; when property owner purchased property; when existing
principal structure was built (include building permit number (s) if possible); why
encroachment Is necessary; how existing encroachment came to be; etc.
For projects authorized under LDC Section 9.04.02, provide detailed description of site
alterations, including any dredging and filling.
Project Narrative
We are requesting a ii'ont yard (J" St. South) setback variance of 17' to ailow for the reconstruction of
a gas canopy over relocatcd fuel dispenser islands, which will be 20' further from the strect than
cunently exists. This site has three front yards and one rear yard. There are no sideyards.
The project proposed is to replace the existing underground fuel storage system with ncw double wall
tanks and piping to meet the State of florida's mandated environmental requirements for 2009. As
part of the scope of work, we arc proposing to relocate the two fueling dispensers twenty feet (20')
fulther and the gas canopy location eighteen feet (18') further away from the property line and Soutb
First Street than is currently the case. However, the new Gas Canopy location will still encroach into
current front yard (J st 81. South) setback reqllircment of fifty feet (50') by 17'.
The existing building is as it was when purchased by B&B Cash Grocery Stores, Inc. on April 14,
1972. We do not know when the original structure was constructed, however it was prior to 1972. The
existing fl'Ont yard setback from Delaware to the building is 98'. The eastern front yard setback from
South First Street is 85.6', The western fi'ont setback ii'om South Sc,'ond Street is 84'. The rear
setback is 10'. No modifications to this slructure are part of this variance appiieation.
Vllrilluce Applicntion rev. t 2.123/04
P:lI!_t':3 or 10
Agenda Item t~o. 17 A
The existing fueling locations arc also the same as when the propCliy was purchased. The ori~ ~'~f~~
x 20' gas canopy, as it was whe;n purchas(~d, \vas damaged during Hurricane \\lilma m~(r~was
subsequcntly rcmoved for safety reasons.
No modifications to the building are being considered at this time oth<.,1. than maintenance and rcpair.
As stated above, we simply want to relocate the fuel dispenser locations and replace the gas canopy in
a new location with a greater front yard (I st St. South) setback than the previous gas canopy. Thc ncw
gas canopy will be free standing and not be attached to the existing building.
The currcnt front yard setback fi"Om South First Street to the existing dispenser islands is 24' 1-3/4"
and the front set back fi-om Delaware is approximately 53'. Under the proposed improvements the
new ii-ont setback from South First Street to the dispensers would increase to 43' to the edge of the
dispenser island and the fi'ont setback from Delaware would increase to 55'. The new dispenser
locations will still encroach into the eunent Front Yard (I" St. South) set back requirement of fifty
(50) feet by 7 feet.
The eunent front ~elbaek fi'om South First Street to the gas canopy prior to taking it down due to the
storm damage was 16' 1-3/4" and the front setback fi.om Delaware wa~ 50' 5-3/4", Under the
proposed improvements, we are a~king for a variance to enel'Oach 17' into the required 50' front yard
setback fi'om South First Street so that the new setback to the edge of the new canopy would increase
10 33', while the front setback from Delaware would be 50'. 11 is because of the front yard setback
it'om South First Street to the new gas canopy and dispensers, which we have maximized given the
existing location of the building, that we are reqnesting thi~ Valiance, even though the previous
canopy and existing fuel dispensers are much closer to South First Street.
As pfllt of the improvements, we propose to remove the existing underground storage tanks and
piping, install new double walled underground fuel storage tanks and piping, increase the pervious
landscape area on the site by removing existing asphalt areas, install landscaping al1d irrigation as
shown 011 the accompanying drawings per Collier County's requirements, relocate and construct u
new dumpster enclosure, construct a new ADA GompJiant access ramp and parking, and constnlel a
eMU privacy wall at the rear of the store to conceal the existing refrigeration equipment area.
The encroachment is necessary in order for us to replace the previous stonn damaged gas canopy, and
we have gone to great lengths to relocate this canopy further fi'om the property line in order to
minimize the encroachment given the existing location of the building and fuel dispensers. The
encroachment of the old gas canopy probably occurred prior to existing Zoning regulations.
\Ve feel these improvemenls, including increasing the front yard setback from South First Street, the
landscaping and reduced impervious areas will make a "1:st improvement to the appearancc of the
property and be an asset to the neighborhood as part of our ongoing commitment to llpgrade our
lmmokalce stores.
Please note that staff and the Collier County Planning Commission shall be guided in their
recommendation to the Board of zoning Appeals, and that the Board of zoning appeals
shall be guided in its determination to approve or deny a variance petition by the below
listed criteria (1-8). (Please address these criteria using additional pages if necessary.)
1, Are there special conditions and circumstances existing which are peculiar to
the location, size and characteristics of the land, strllcture, or building involved,

meet current Zoning requirements. The prior gas canopy was damaged during Hurricane
Wilma and was removed for safety reasons. We have always planned to replace the canopy
at the time we upgrade our Underground Fuel Storage and Dispensing syetem to meet the
State's 2009 requirement. We are requesting to reconstruct the fueling locations and gas
canopy in a new location which moves these Improvements further away from the property
line than is/was existing.
2. Are there special conditions and circumstances which do not result from the
action of the applicant such as pre-existing conditions relative to the property
which is the subject of the variance request.
The existing site layout and previous gas canopy location were pre-existing at the time
we purchased the property in April, 1972. The old canopy was damaged by a force of
nature beyond our control, and as we understand it we would be able to replace the gas
canopy in its previous location without variance and the other improvements that we
propose here-in. However, it is our opinion that the work proposed will have a positive
Impact on our property and the surrounding community.
3. Will a literal interpretation of the provisions of this zoning code work unnecessary and
undue
hardship on the applicant or create practical difficulties on the applicant,
A literal Interpretation of the provisions of the Zoning Code would require us to
demolish and relocate the existing convenience store bUilding and develop a new Site
Development Plan in order to meet all necessary requirements to reconstruct the gas
canopy within the required setbacks. This is not a viable economic investment for this
property.
.1. Will the variance, if granted, be the minimum variance that will make possible the
reasonable use of
the land, building or structure and which promote standards of health, safety or
welfare.
It is our opinion the variance sought is the minimum variance required to construct a
replacement gas canopy given the location of the existing convenience store building. In
addition, our proposed relocated dispenser islands and gas canopy lessen an existing
encroachment pre-elating current requirements.
5. Will granting the variance requested confer on the petitioner any special privilege that
is denied by

these zoning regulations to other lands, buildings, or structures in the s;me ~nJ;1\r6 ~?~~
distl-ict.
Granting the variance will not confer any special privilege on the petitioner, as
throughout Immokalee existing gas canopies do not meet current setback requirements,
primarily because these structures pre-date existing Zoning requirements or have been
granted variances due to existing conditions.

0, Will granting the variance be in harmony with the intent and purpose of this zoning
code, and not be
injurious to the neighborhood, or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.
Granting the variance will bring the site closer to compliance with existing Zoning
requirements and greatly enhance the visual appearance of the property. Denying the
valance, on the other hand, will require that we replace the existing dispensers and gas
canopy in their current location which is a greater encroachment than what we seek under
this variance application.
7. Are there natural conditions or physically induced conditions that ameliorate the goals
and
objectives of the regulation such as natural preserves, lakes, golf course, etc.
By decreasing the amount of impervious pavement and replacing it with landscaped
green space we believe we are attempting to meet the goals and objectives of the
regulations as best we can given the existing building location on the site,
&, Will granting tile variance be consistent with the growth management pian,
Yes, granting the variance will be consistent with the growth management plan, as the
use and intensity of development will remain the same as is existing.
BE ADVISED THAT SECTION 10.03.05.B.3 OF THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE REQUIRES
AN APPLICANT TO REMOVE THEIR PUBLIC HEARING SIGN (S) AFTER FINAL ACTION IS
TAKEN BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS. BASED ON THE BOARD'S FINAL
ACTION ON THIS ITEM, PLEASE REMOVE All PUBLIC HEARING ADVERTISING SIGN(S)
IMMEDIATELY.
