Description/Background:
The applicant, Mr. Joseph Earnest, representing Lone Star Builders, LLC, is requesting that the Planning Commission review and approve a commercial site plan for a new Quick Quack Car Wash facility, which also requires Conditional Use review. An associated staff report addresses the Conditional Use application for the Car Wash land use. Another related application is for a two lot commercial subdivision, which is also before the Planning Commission at this meeting. The Planning Commission is the land use approval body for this action, as designated in the Sandy City Development Code.
The subject project is proposed to be located on the southern portion of the property currently occupied by Alpine Electronics, which is being sold to the applicant. The Alpine Electronics property is 1.55 acres in size, which is mostly vacant. The small building which houses the electronics shop will be demolished, with the entire property being redeveloped in two phases. The first phase consists of this Quick Quack Car Wash facility on the southern, 0.90 acres. The remainder 0.65 acre parcel/lot will be sold for future retail development.
