The best thing to do in these situations where: Good intentions meet reality; ignorance drives the car; and nothing works in an unreasonable situation …. is be honest. “Nope. Won’t happen. Here’s why…”

Before the dialog; make sure the owner is aware; the site design has avoided death traps; and you are prepared for profit loss. Finally don’t count on owner support after construction approval.

I spent twenty years doing gas station/mini-marts. The solutions are easy. Everything else is the killer.
