Cha(rman Herbst stated the plans shaw a very bad ~utlet on the corner ~3nd explalned thc Commission reco9nizes the difflculty of develoi~ing these service stetion cornar sltes~ but did not feel the traffic hazard has been eliminated wtth these plans. Ne felt the butlding could be placed within the co~ifines of the ordinance and traffic could fiow out the back~ and stated it would probably require a smaller butlding but would eilminate the hazard at that corner. Mr. Combs stated they had tried to kecp thc build(ng away fram the corner and had t~led to use the curb cuts whlcli exist. John Coelho, representing North Mierican Inv~stments~ agent, explatned there is a large utillty pole with guywires l~cated in the sidewalk at tt~e rear and thai It cannot be moved, and that was the reason they have ~noved the bui lding back a~d used the existing driveweys~ but that one alternative would be to not have that drtvrway on Orange at all and widen the driveway on Knott Street.

The Commission discussed whether or not both waivers should be granted, and Chairman Ncrbst felt granting watver (a) for a setback of 5 feet on Orange Avenue would be setting a dt re precedent. Mr. Combs pointed out the building is app~oximately i30 feet away from Kn~tt Street.
