Texas Ave., Ste. 280 Bryan, TX 77807 846-8868 Telephone Number Name of Property Owner Don Knowles Mailing Address 900 Harvey Road, # 10 College Station, TX 77840 696-1213 Telephone Number LOCATION OF PROPERTY 900 Harvey Road, # 10 _ Address Lot Block Subdivision - Description if Applicable Lease Space # 10 Post Oak Village Shopping Center Action Requested Variance to Building Department ruling requiring one additional water closet in the proposed expansion of Bronze Body Tanning Center. Current Zoning of Subject Land C-1 Applicable Ordinance Section Section 922, Table 922.2, Required Minimum Facilities Standard Plumbing Code - 1991 1 COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING FOR A VARIANCE REQUEST The following specific variation from the ordinance is requested. Variance to Building Department ruling requiring one additional water closet in the proposed expansion. This ruling relies on the interpretation of Section 922, Table 922.2, Required Minimum Facilities, Standard Plumbing Code - 1991 This variance is necessary due to the following special conditions. The existing Bronze Body Tanning Center facility, which opened in January 1994, contains an area of 1,860 sq. ft. and includes two handicapped bathrooms. This facility accommodates 13 tanning rooms, an office and a checking in/reception area. The proposed expansion, into the available lease space next door, covers an area of 1,296 sq. ft. which will be connected to the existing facility. The resulting 3,156 sq. ft. Tanning Center will continue to be served by the two existing bathrooms. The total number of tanning rooms will be 28. As explained below the existing bathrooms will be sufficient to satisfy the needs of this facility. Please see the attached drawing. The following alternatives to this request are possible. This facility by its nature should be considered a retail rather than a service facility. Costumers come in for a very short and definite period of time, much like going into a store or a restaurant. In many cases customers come in after having made appointments so a waiting period is eliminated. There are no children customers. The proposed expansion will further minimize or eliminate any waiting period. This variance will not be contrary to the public interest by virtue of the following facts: Two handicapped bathrooms are already available. Average customer presence in the establishment is 30 minutes. No services other than tanning are offered at the establishment. The facility is fully computerized so that it can be run by one employee. Upon completion of the expansion it is expected that no more than two employees will be required at any time. The facts stated by me in this application are true and correct to the best of my knowledge. . 27� /q`/- Applicant: t C Date: GALINDO ENGINEERS AND PLANNERS 3833 South Texas Ave., Suite 280 Bryan, Texas 77802 (409) 846-8868 LEASE SPACE LAYOUT EX15T/NG AND PRD,L'05F13 Willi DIv1ENSI❑NS WALLS_AND DOOR TO BE EXISTING WALL REMOVED EXISTING DOOR ,-4'-t 16, 6' 29'-11 1/2' /� 20'-10 3/ H., ` 1- . /\ 8'-7 3/8'4 -:` 8'-7 3/8''` 7_ 7 I _ \ \\\\ 9 6'---9' "1 21 1 �'-s' \ \ 9\9\,\ � - -20 - - . 0:�. zz 2, s',, 7 , \ 4 `\ \ \ \\ \` \ 10, L 197 EXISTING WALL \ \ '' \'- f (T❑ BE REMOVED) �3„ . \\'. • \ C._ 23 EXISTING \ '\ 7 18 FIRE WALL '� \\ \ \ 11 7 C24 EXISTING WALL \7.,\'‘ , l7 \ 7.\\ 6 TANNING 2 \ \, �25 ROOM ANN \ \\ \ \ \` 16 (TYP,) \ \ \ \ \ -•,_.,, \ 5' 7.,,,,,, .\. ip! \ \ \ 3 26 1 \ - 15� ' 8'-2 3/8' \ \ \ \\ ,\ 8'-2 3/8"t .$ ,\ 1 5 / \IIAITING ,-7 \ \REE TII AEA \ 6'-9' L�] BY 7"-8\'<q--s,, 6'-91 27 t SCALE 4 S = 12' \ AL,L AND\ v .� \ ❑12 Q BE ` 5. 28 7' ` \ 4;--.9' 1 \ \ \ i L-} ! /-v- E .....t.- XISTING GLASS WALLEXISTING DOOR/L.
