Board of Adjustment approves application for Belmar Boulevard and Route 35 site
The convenience store chain, which operates numerous sites in the surrounding area, pitched the board to convert the 2,316-foot gas station building into a 7-Eleven store, leaving the existing gas pumps to be operated by Shell. Gas pumps would be increased to four, with one for diesel, according to planning documents filed with the board. The site was granted a use variance, since gas station/convenience store combination businesses are not allowed in that zone. The footprint of the main Shell station building will not change. But it will be renovated and turned into the 7-Eleven. The 1-acre property also will accommodate 24 parking spaces and underground gas tanks will be removed and replaced with new, 15,000-gallon tanks, according to …

Board also memorializes New Bedford Road Alpaca farm
The Board of Adjustment at its meeting Wednesday denied an application for a proposed 7-Eleven convenience store and gas station on Route 35. In a 3-2 vote, the board turned down the application, which proposed to turn the Gulf gas station on Route 35 and Allaire Road into a 2,187-square-foot 7-Eleven store, citing concerns over the lot size and an insufficient number of parking spaces at the site. After hearing closing testimony from Sema Food Mart, the applicant, and the Danskin Real Estate and Insurance office, a neighboring business that objected to the proposal, the board debated the possible detriment, if any, the store would have on surrounding businesses and traffic. Wilma Morrissey, board vice chair, said the nearly 35,234-square-…

I' m surprised that no one else living past us along the Blvd, especially those living on the water, could be happy about it either. more ›
