SUBJECT:
Public Hearing on an Application for a site plan for a 2,365 sq. ft. retail/fast food restaurant with drive through to be located on property at 610 E. Main St., zoned Commercial Highway.
BACKGROUND
LBC Investments, LLC, (the “Applicant”) is proposing a site plan to construct a new 2,365 sq. ft. fast food restaurant with drive through to be located on a 1.68 acre parcel at 610 E. Main (the “Property”). The Property is used as parking for the commercial structure at 610 E. Main, which is located on a separate parcel from the Property. The Property is zoned commercial highway (C). A subdivision to create a lot for the new use will be proposed at a later date. Restaurants/retail are considered a permitted use in the C zone.
ISSUES
The purpose of the site plan review is to ensure compliance with all regulations and to protect the public health, safety and welfare, to promote balanced growth, to ensure adequate provision of public services and facilities and to guide the character of the city.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Planning and Zoning Commission make the motion to recommend that Council approve the site development plan for a new retail/fast food restaurant on property located at 610 E. Main, in the Commercial Highway (C) zone, as submitted by LBC Investments, LLC through P&Z Resolutions No. 3, Series 2023, with the following conditions:
