Project Description 
 
The proposed Circle K development will include the new construction of a 5,200 SF building and 
a 7-pump, 4,608 SF fuel canopy. The project will include masonry construction of the building to 
match current Circle K Store Standards, as well as the City’s Commercial Design Standards. The 
facility will feature modernized equipment and materials and will be well landscaped. The design 
allows for ample room for customer parking and vehicle maneuvering for both the pedestrian and 
vehicular customers.  
 
Access 
The existing access drives will be closed and replaced new curb and gutter to match existing 
streetscape. New access drives, that fall in line with City standards, will be installed in conjunction 
with the adjacent development to the east and to the south on both 75th Avenue and Glendale 
Avenue. The new drives will be shared access with the adjoining new commercial development. 
A revised bus bay and a new right turn deceleration lane along Glendale Avenue have also been 
added to the plan, per City comments.  
 
Citizen Participation Plan 
In advance of this application, a Citizen Participation Plan has been implemented. A notification 
letter was sent via US Mail on December 13, 2021, with a comment deadline of December 27, 
2021,  to the appropriate parties per the requirements of the Citizen Participation Plan Packet. 
There have not been any comments received to date.  
 
The proposed Circle K development will bring a newer and larger facility to the citizens of the 
City of Glendale and surrounding communities, providing an aesthetically pleasing facility along 
two highly traveled roadways. The proposed Circle K facility will be operated 24 hours a day, 7 
days a week.
