Commission approves site plan for 1,125 sq ft addition at Breakpoint gas station on Highway 25
Summary
Represented by Greenwood Design, applicant Ronak Patel received approval for a 1,125 sq ft side addition to the Breakpoint gas station at 515 Highway 25 after staff confirmed setbacks are met and commissioners reviewed parking and fuel‑safety measures; final building permits may require state fire marshal review depending on occupancy.
The Planning Commission approved a final site plan for a 1,125 square‑foot addition to the Breakpoint gas station at 515 Highway 25.
Allison Turner of Greenwood Design presented the application on behalf of owner Ronak Patel. Turner said the planned addition is about 1,125 square feet and will be attached on the north side of the building; its intended use had not been specified, and Turner said the use will determine final permitting requirements.
Miss Rosalie, planning staff, reviewed the staff report and said the addition meets required setbacks but staff asked that the site plan clearly note the distance between the diesel pump and the building and that a fire‑resistant wall be included on the plan. Rosalie said occupancy and proposed use of the added space will determine whether plans must be routed to the State Fire Marshal.
Commissioners also confirmed parking requirements: the site plan shows 25 parking spaces, exceeding the stated minimum of 23 and including two ADA spaces. The commission checked fuel‑storage proximity rules; Rosalie cited NFPA 30 guidance and noted the measured separation in the drawing is about 28 feet, which staff said meets the cited guidance for tanks and pumps in this configuration.
Mister Thomas moved to approve the final site plan; the motion was seconded and carried without recorded opposition.
Staff reminded the applicant that final building permits will need to show the required notes and may trigger additional plan review depending on tenant use.
