Planning commission approves Shell station rebrand and car wash updates with paint and signage conditions
Summary
The commission approved façade and signage updates for the former Johnny’s site to convert the property to a Shell station and car wash, adding an amendment to paint coping white and set timelines for stripe/panel completion; approval was unanimous.
The Muskego City Planning Commission on Feb. 3 approved an application to rebrand the former Johnny’s Patrol Insurance property at South 76 West 17871/17857 Janesville Road as a Shell convenience station and car wash, including canopy and building color banding and signage updates.
Staff described the proposal as a cosmetic rebrand: paint bands to match Shell colors across the main convenience store and car wash, and replacement of worn red coping. Staff noted a unique condition in the resolution requiring panels to be installed on the car wash sides within six months to complete the updated banding. Commissioners discussed signage scale and suggested painting the coping white to tie the building elements together; the commission amended the resolution to add that change.
The amended resolution passed unanimously. Staff asked the applicant to submit final elevations showing actual sign dimensions for code review; staff reiterated that allowable sign size is governed by percent-of-elevation rules in the ordinance.
