The EPA says that gas stations should be sited no closer than 1000 feet to schools and public places. This is due to the cancer causing gas benzene which causes blood cancers. Exhaust fumes are also implicated because of benzene. Gas stations absolutely should not be located in commercial/residential neighborhoods for that and other reasons. If developers can't make money the way it is zoned with ground floor retail then the land should remain idle, what a wonderful thing to leave green spaces in the community.
