Chair Allen referred to the driveways for the other projects and confirmed that the Santa Rita
<br /> Road/West Las Positas Boulevard location or the southern-most location closest to the retail
<br /> development is the narrowest; Mr. Tassano said he believes it is less than 27 feet. The next
<br /> driveway is 40 to 42 feet on the corner of Santa Rita Road. This is the one he looked at in
<br /> evaluating how this proposed location would work and did not believe the 40-foot driveway
<br /> provides anything additional except more flexibility on how quickly a vehicle can come across.
<br /> Commissioner Balch said he noticed that the U-turn is further down for the location on West
<br /> Las Positas Boulevard, at the end of the car wash, and he would not think there is the same
<br /> traffic.
<br /> Mr. Tassano confirmed. He then said in addition to the reduction they also requested it be
<br /> shifted to the east so there is better sight access upon entering, and it separates the visibility of
<br /> how a vehicle exits the car wash. However, 35 feet is adequate at this location for that reason.
<br /> Commissioner Brown asked if other cities codify what percentage of the canopy parked cars in
<br /> a combined model like this would contribute to parking.
<br /> Mr. Tassano said as opposed to what other cities do, staff assesses the IT Parking Manual
<br /> and they do not count those in their parking as spots. Over time, people's behavior changes
<br /> and the way in which convenience stores are used is different than in the 1990s. These are
<br /> fueling positions and they have a separate standard which states how many parking spaces
<br /> are needed.
<br /> Commissioner O'Connor referred to Ray Street and asked how wide the south driveway was
<br /> when exiting.
<br /> Mr. Tassano said he was not sure, but the real issue with that location is less about the width.
<br /> There was a large vertical displacement so someone would `catch air' if they were going too
<br /> fast. It also exits at an odd angle, and they requested this to be widened as well, but he was
<br /> not sure of the dimensions.
<br /> Commissioner O'Connor said when a vehicle is making a left turn out of Ray Street, if another
<br /> vehicle is exiting, it is hard to make that turn, and it causes a back-up on First Street.
<br /> Mr. Tassano said he recalled that location is just next to the curb and retaining wall when
<br /> making their exit and drivers go out to the middle, especially if they are trying to get back to
<br /> First Street.
<br /> THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED
<br /> Chief Administrative Officer of Anabi Real Estate Development, LLC, Summer lreifej, gave a
<br /> presentation and background on the company's start and noted this is the company's first site
<br /> in Northern California and they're simply asking that the Commission be fair and not make the
<br /> process difficult for them. She said it took them one year to purchase the land next door and
<br /> she thanked Brad Hirst for his help in getting to the point where they are today.
<br /> Applicant Brad Hirst spoke on behalf of the owner and provided a brief history on the site. He
<br /> said none of the three parcels on Hopyard Road have any easements and each parcel is
