A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE SITE PLAN REQUEST OF 7-ELEVEN, INC. FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A 7-ELEVEN CONVENIENCE STORE WITH FUEL SALES GENERALLY LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF COCONUT CREEK PARKWAY AND BANKS ROAD. (QUASI-JUDICIAL)(PUBLIC HEARING)
body
BACKGROUND:
The applicant, 7-Eleven Inc., is requesting site plan approval for the construction of a 7-Eleven convenience store with fuel sales to be located at 4990 and 4960 Coconut Creek Parkway, at the southeast corner of Coconut Creek Parkway and Banks Road.
The subject property consists of two separate parcels. The corner parcel is currently developed with a 960 square foot convenience store with a six (6) dispenser (12 fueling position) Mobil gas station and 648 square foot drive-thru carwash, located at 4990 Coconut Creek Parkway. The eastern parcel is the existing 2,845 square foot Kyle Discount Tool Rental facility located at 4960 Coconut Creek Parkway.
DISCUSSION:
The redevelopment includes the demolition of all structures on both parcels and the construction of a new 3,500 square foot 7-Eleven convenience store and gas station with eight (8) dispensers (16 fueling positions) for fuel sales. The applicant is not proposing to replace the drive-thru car wash. Proposed development overall will decrease square footage on the combined sites by 2,100 square feet +/-.
Architecture for the convenience store consists of a two-tone stucco finish with stone base and building footprint articulation to provide interest and depth. All sides have similar architectural treatments with decorative brackets, enhanced stone pilasters, and canopy awnings added to the front façade.
PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT:
The applicant was required to perform community outreach in an effort to provide project information to neighboring property owners as well as hear and address concerns and issues raised through this process. The applicant has submitted information related to that effort, which is included as part of the agenda backup for this application. Key efforts resulting from their outreach included a meeting held at the City of Coconut Creek Community Center located at 1100 Lyons Road, which was intended to provide a forum for residents but was open to the public. Twenty (20) notices were sent out to the surrounding neighbors within 500 feet. The Community Meeting was held on Wednesday, October 16, 2019, at 6:00 p.m.; there were no attendees.
