Looks to like you have a pretty well thought out business plan.
I'm not in the business, but the few truck parking yards around here seem to be full all the time. The key seems to be to be near a distribution center of some kind.
As far as "demand" you don't need to live where there is a HOA. Most cities prohibit on the street parking, and the truckers aren't going to tear up their own driveways. I get a sense that's where a lot of the business originates.
While a lot of the amenities sound like a good idea, I'd steer away from anything that could be broken, or requires maintenance.
A row of Porta-potties, and let that company worry about where it all goes.
Make a deal with a company to do washing.
I'd revisit the gravel idea with Fulton County. Around here, the big push is for permable surfaces, to cut down on run off. Fulton Industrial is right on the Chattachoochee, you'd think they would be sensitive to that.

You can look at Petro availability online. When I looked there were 13 spots open. You can go to the Petro website and go through the motions to make a reservation to see how many spots they have open.
Dont do nightly. Monthly only with a lease. The idea is to be a niche storage lot.
