Meeting Minutes Agenda Preview Conference Bovnton Beach, Flprida O~_nber 20, 2003 V.E. Gateway Texaco, 2360 North Federal Highway City Manager Bressner requested that the Development Department prepare a matrix for these requested variances, explaining what the code requires and what relief the applicant is requesting. When the matter previously came before the City Commission, the Commission gave approval to the concept of adding a modest addition to the gas station for the purpose of providing a rear storage area. This would require a variance because it is an expansion of a non-conforming use. The other issue was the access for the car wash facility and that necessitated some setback variances. Assistant City Attorney Cirullo explained that these items could be heard together but must be acted upon separately at the Commission meeting. V.[.
