Subject: Harmony Market Quick Lube/Car Wash
(File: 9310MEMl)
A quick lube/car wash is proposed in the Harmony Market
retail center in Fort Collins. The parcel is located in the
northwest quadrant of the Lemay/Oakridge intersection. All
access is proposed from a north/south driveway on the east
side of Steele's Market. The southern driveway is designated
for two way traffic and the northern driveway is designated.
as an exit only. These access will operate acceptably.
In the, "Harmony Market Site Access Study," March 1989,
the land use assum.edL for Harmony Market was a shopping center.
The quick Tube/car wash site is half of a larger parcel that
contained a 24,000 square foot building. Assuming that .12,000
square feet of building can be allocated to the quick lube/car
wash site, this would result in the trip generation indicated
in Table 1, using the rates from the site access study. Table
2 shows the expected trip generation from the quick tube/car
wash uses proposed onL this site. Comparing the trip
generation, it is concluded that the "Harmony Market Site
Access Study" reflects the trips generated by the proposed
quick tube/car wash use.
City staff raised a concern about the amount of stacking
space for the car wash and the quick tube. A queuing analysis
was performed for both uses. The highest peak hour trip
generation shown in Table 2 was used as the demand in these
analyses. These queuing analyses indicated the following:
Quick Lube
Average service time - 20 minutes
Average wait time - 16 minutes
Average number of vehicles waiting in each
bay stack - 0.5
Car Wash
Average wash time
Average wait time
Average number of
bay stack -
- 15 minutes
- 45 minutes
vehicles waiting in each
2.1
Review of the site plan indicates that there is adequate
stacking space at each service and wash bay.
