Fueling station and convenience store at Arlington and Monroe
Summary
A developer wants to build a gas station with a large convenience store on the southeast corner of Arlington and Monroe, which would require rezoning land now set aside for single-family homes and office use, plus special approvals to sell beer and wine in an area already saturated with alcohol licenses. The case was continued off-calendar at the applicant's request, so neighbors will get another chance to weigh in later.

Steven Walker Communities wants to build a gas station with a large convenience store on three vacant parcels at the southeast corner of Arlington and Monroe — land now zoned partly for single-family homes. The project needs a General Plan Amendment, rezones, alcohol licenses and a variance, all of which will get a public hearing.
