The property owner, Daydoe Design Build LLC, proposes to divide the current lot into a 4,791 sq ft standard lot and a 8,499 sq ft flag lot. The standard lot will retain the existing house, garage, and driveway.
This land use decision only concerns the lot partition and does not cover any future development on this site. Any future proposed development on the site will go through the standard city permitting process and, if necessary, a separate land use decision.

The US Market chain is in the permitting process for opening a convenience store, coffee shop, and gas station at 6551 NE 47th Ave. Ronald James Ped Architect, PC submitted the final implementation plan for the site to Cully Association of Neighbors. US Market plans to build according to the standards for the zoning and building codes for this site, so there is no land use decision or review process. US Market is simply informing the neighborhood of the upcoming project. The building and public works permits are still under review, so there is no specific timetable for construction yet.
See the attached documents below to read the full implementation plan. Kevin Gerlits, an architect working for Ronald James Ped Architect, PC, attended the CAN Transportation and Land Use meeting on December 20, 2022 to discuss the project. The meeting summary is also attached.
