Commission approves special‑use permit for one drive‑up ATM lane at new Wells Fargo site
Summary
The commission approved a special‑use permit for a Wells Fargo site that will include a single drive‑up ATM lane (stacking for about five cars) and walk‑up ATM; the bank representative said the lane is intended only for ATM use and lighting will meet state ATM safety standards.
A Wells Fargo representative described June 2 a small-scale branch layout with a single drive‑up ATM lane and a walk‑up ATM; the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to approve the special‑use permit for the drive‑up ATM lane.
Peter, the bank’s on-site representative, said the design is not a multi-lane teller drive‑through but rather a convenience ATM lane with stacking space for roughly five cars. He told commissioners the bank designs lighting to meet state guidelines for ATM safety (minimum foot‑candle standards at specified radii). “It’s not a Dairy Queen drive up,” the representative said to distinguish the ATM lane from a full teller drive‑through.
Commissioners discussed access and adjacency to an existing wall and adjacent development access. The approved special‑use permit is tied to the bank use; staff and the applicant discussed an ownership/lease term approach to the permit so the approval remains in place while the bank occupies the site.
The motion to approve passed by voice vote; transcript records the motion and a voice approval but no roll-call tally.
