VARIANCE REQUEST: 1101 Burman Drive Fashion Park Cleaners
Acting Chairman Reid introduced the request for a side yard variance from Fashion Park Cleaners with regard to remodeling objectives which is in violation of the Jacksonville Municipal
Code Section 18.68.050.
Mr. Brooksher Banks related that they conducted a market study regarding enhancement of services and traffic patterns during peak hours of operation and offered that remodeling the building
will provide additional rental space available for the downtown business district. He then stated that a drive-thru facility (in car service) will alleviate some of the congestion problems
occurring during those peak hours and briefly explained how the drive-thru facility and an express lane will operate. He related the success of other Fashion Park Cleaners featuring
this type of service. He related that there is twenty feet from the building to the property line which will be concreted for the drive-thru, however, the post required to support
the canopy will need to be constructed an additional two feet over the property line. He stated that the adjacent property owner has granted Fashion Park Cleaners an easement for the
remodeling objectives which includes a one lane exit onto Jeff Davis. (a copy of the permission letter is on file in the office of the City Clerk) He presented the Board with sketches
of the proposed construction which depicted the building space to be split with the addition of the drive-thru facility on the east side of Fashion Park Cleaners and a one lane exit
on the east side of the title company.

Discussion ensued as to the conveyance of the easement should Pioneer Land Company sell the title company. It was noted that the easement would be recorded with the County Clerk.
In response to a question posed by Acting Chairman Reid, Mr. Banks related that over the counter service will still be offered.
City Engineer Reel related that the City is amicable regarding the request.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Patton, Mr. Banks related that consideration initially is to have a vinyl awning used for signage. He related that there would also be
a knee high sign used at the exit onto Jeff Davis.
Commissioner Patton moved, seconded by Commissioner Baldwin to approve the side yard variance as requested. MOTION CARRIED.

Acting Chairman Reid adjourned the meeting at approximately 4:30 p.m.
