The Avondale City Council voted unanimously to approve a new QuikTrip and training protocol for police officers, and offered an update on the aquatic center during its Feb. 22 meeting.
For the QT, 7.37 gross acres of land at the southwest corner of McDowell Road and 107th Avenue needed to be rezoned from agricultural to freeway commercial.
The freeway commercial zone accommodates a range of commercial uses, including office, medical, hospitality, retail and restaurants in a regional trade area along freeway corridors.
The 4,993-square-foot QT will have eight fuel pumps. A gas station with a convenience store use requires approval of a conditional use permit, which was also approved by the city.
Both requests passed with a vote of 7-0.
