E.There are a number of issues to be resolved before such a connection can be realized, not the least of which is poor soils and wetlands for most of the corridor. However, it is in the best interests of the City to support such an access if the owner is able to obtain it, and the City would be well served by establishment of easements through the property to serve adjacent industrial park parcels. The City Council finds that granting a conditional use permit for the proposed private motor fuel station use will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the public, will not adversely affect light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring properties, nor will its use depreciate surrounding property values and that the proposed level of use of the property will be in keeping with the intent and objectives of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
