This is a completely unnecessary gas station - adding traffic, light intrusion, noise pollution to
our neighborhood.There are gas stations less than 1 miles away: Town Pump on Baxter and Town Pump at N
19th just south of the Target, PetSmart, Winco shopping center, among others alreadymentioned in other comments.
There is no need for a gas station here, and no need, period, of a gas station in the middle of agrowing residential area.
The addition of this gas station will directly affect our childrens’ safety with an increase oftraffic going in and out of the station likely on both sides in addition to an already busy
existing intersection. We have all ages of children that frequent the area for school orrecreational activities as well as our pets not being as safe with the increased traffic this would
generate.Please do NOT pass this Special Use Permit! It is completely unnecessary and an unsafe
addition to our neighborhood.Thank you,
