Memo To Planning Commission Page 2 March 25, 1997 • Site Plan The proposed expansion for the sports bar was included in the original site plan approved in 1995 and the associated site plan improvements have been installed. Landscaping Landscaping will be installed per the approved landscaping plan Operations The approximately 6000 square foot sports bar will have a seating capacity of 145 to 160 people, a raised dining area will have 60 seats, the central bar area will have 68 seats at tables and 32 at the bar.

The proposed hours of operation are as follows: Monday through Friday 11:00 am to 1:00 am Saturday and Sunday 10:00 am to 1:00 am Traffic and Access Access to the bar will be via the existing entrances on the north and south ends of the mall.
