Project: Broach Oil Company, Inc.
Shell Oil Service Station
at Corner of Nagle Street
and University Drive
To: College Station
Zoning Board of Adjustment
Subject: Variance Request
From: Jack W. Cumpton for
Broach Oil Company, Inc.
Date: August 6, 1982
On behalf of Broach Oil Company I respectfully request your variance
authorization on the following specific items:
1 . Section 6-G.l. (25' front yard with 6' overhang of canopy
into front yard).
Requested justification: The existing first pump island is approxi-
mately 14'-0" from front property line to
edge of pump curb and 16' from property
line to centerline of canopy columns.
2. Section 6-G.3
To move the canopy foundation, pumps and
islands would be of considerable cost.
We request authorization to leave the
pump islands and canopy columns in their
present location with authorization to
improve the canopy provided it meets the
building code and does not infringe on
the front yard setback any further than
existing.
(7.5 foot side yard)
Requested justification: The existing building on the west elevation
is approximately 3'-3" from the common
property line. The existing wall is con-
crete block without windows. The roof is
Class 'A' on heavy timber construction which
apparently was permitted when the structure
was built.
Modifications to bring the construction back
an additional 3'-3" would be prohibitive.

3. Section 8-D.6 and 8-D.9 (sign ordinance)
Requested justification: The Shell sign has been in existence on
the corner since the station was built.
The sign does not block view at the inter-
section.
4. Section 4,C.3
The removal of the sign will cause an
economical hardship and absence of easy
identity.
(25% ffi{pansion of non-conforming use)
Requested justification: The existing site and building is obvi-
ously well suited for its intended use
however, trends in the customer's conve-
niences and economic consideration require
additional space.
The existing building has 1662.28 square
feet and under Section 4,C.3 we request
the non-conforming building be authorized
with an additional 406 square feet of new
construction.
