concerns regarding access and the five one-way lanes proposed
for circulation.The Applicant has modified the plan to four
lanes with relocation of the gas pump on the east side.

revised proposal provides wider lanes,with the through lane
being moved to the east eliminating the traffic cross-over
from the pump to the parking area.All lanes will be clearly
marked with signage and pavement markings.It is Staff’s
