The Yuma Planning and Zoning Commission approved a permit for a combined convenience store, gas station and restaurant. The Maverik will be located at the northwest corner of East Gila Ridge Road and Avenue 3E, next to the Love’s Travel Center.
It will have a drive-thru for a quick-serve restaurant and provide fueling, packaged beer and wine sales, as well as fresh food items. The store will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week,
with restroom facilities open to the public. It will not offer overnight truck parking, laundry or showers.
The business will have seven fuel pumps and a canopy in front of the store and six additional pumps and a canopy for commercial fueling, for a total of 13 fuel positions on site.
The design will include outdoor seating, surrounded by landscaping.
The commission also approved a permit to
PJT LLC for a soft cloth drive-thru car wash at 1998 S. Avenue B, at the northwest corner of 20th Street.
The new car wash will have 37 vacuum station parking stalls and will accommodate more than 21 queued vehicles.
The hours of operation are expected to be 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday.
In addition, the commission granted permits to a car rental company and a mobile mechanic.
The permit allows JRS Mobile Services to operate at 2697 S. Avenue 2½ E, in the Gateway Plaza Industrial Park.
When a semi-truck or trailer breaks down, JR’s Mobile Service is called to the site to complete repairs. The majority of the work is done off-site, away from the property.
A vehicle which cannot be repaired in the field is brought back to this location for repairs. The proposed business will operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with public access from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
***** Enterprise, a vehicle rental company, will operate at 3905 S. 4th Ave. on property that previously, at different times, housed a gym and a bar.
Enterprise wants to add an enclosed car wash tunnel and a vacuum canopy for the cleaning of returned vehicles.
