Powell

Description

Sketch plan for a 5,000 sq ft fuel service building with a drive-thru and a 3,000 sq ft, five-pump canopy on a 2.61-acre commercial outparcel. Neighbors strongly opposed; feedback only, with a conditional use and development plan review still to come.

Proposed Bunker Lane fuel station

A developer wants to put a 5,000 sq ft fuel station with five pumps and a drive-thru next to the Big Bear Farms condos and across from two preschools. Dozens of neighbors turned out to oppose it, citing five gas stations already within a half mile, traffic backups, fumes, and lighting. No decision was made — the conditional use vote comes later, and commissioners signaled tough conditions ahead.
