Holly Hill approves special exception for proposed Murphy USA service station on Ridgewood Avenue
Summary
Senior planner Josh Deal recommended conditional approval of a special exception to allow a convenience store and 16 pumps at a consolidated site near 1100 Ridgewood Avenue; the commission approved the conditions unanimously.
The Holly Hill City Commission unanimously approved a conditional special exception to allow a convenience store and 16 self‑service pumps at the site that includes the property discussed for 1100 Ridgewood Avenue.
Senior planner Josh Deal told the commission the applicant proposes consolidation of five lots along Wood Avenue, LPGA Boulevard and State Avenue to create a single site for the service station and that the property is zoned CC‑1 (commercial). Staff recommended conditional approval and listed required conditions, including a full irrigation plan for landscaped areas and consolidation of the parcels before final site approval.
Deal said the proposal "adheres to or exceeds" the site‑plan review criteria listed in the staff report and that the engineering staff has the elevations and site materials for review even though elevations are not part of the special‑exception approval. Commissioners asked clarifying questions about elevations and stated they understood elevation review is handled separately through the site‑plan/engineering process.
There were no members of the public who wished to speak on the item. The commission moved, seconded and carried the conditional approval unanimously.
The decision is limited to the special exception required by city code; any building permits or final site approvals remain subject to staff engineering review and any required permitting.
