A Circle K convenience store and gas station may be replacing the old Bank of American building at 699 S. Nova Road.

The Ormond Beach Site Plan Review Committee reviewed an early draft of the application at its April 10 meeting. It was the board's second review of the application and several members had concerns about the traffic congestion and entrances in to the lot. 

The building is located at the corner of South Nova Road and Hand Avenue. The site has two entrances, one on Hand Avenue and one on Nova Road.

The applicant originally requested left-hand turn lanes be added going out onto Hand Avenue and into the lot from Hand Avenue, according to committee meeting minutes. The lot already allows left turns leaving the site on that road, but the committee members and staff agreed that adding a turn lane from Hand's eastbound lane would not work because of the traffic at the intersection.

The Bank of America, the minutes said, did not have that concern as it operated between standard business hours.

As the application progresses, staff will require a traffic study to be conducted on the lot.
