Memo to the Mayor and City Council <br />December 16, 1996 <br /> <br />Page 4 <br /> <br />Some class I restaurants also sell liquor. Under the current regulations, a <br />class I restaurant requires administrative staff review as a permitted use <br />prior to the issuance of a building permit. However, if a class I restaurant <br />sells liquor, such as Chi Chi's or Applebee's, the project will be reviewed as <br />conditional use permit because on-sale liquor is a conditional use. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />Commissioner Minton made a motion to establish hotels/motels and class I <br />restaurants as conditional uses in the C3(Highway Commercial) district and <br />in the Cl(Central Commercial) district. The motion failed by a vote of 4 to 3. <br />The Planning Commission recommended denial of the ordinance amendment <br />to establish hotels/motel and class I restaurants as a conditional use in the <br />C3 and C 1 districts. <br /> <br />Establishing a use as a conditional use is not intended to set up barriers for <br />property owners as they plan the development of their property or expand <br />existing uses. Rather, the conditional use permit is intended to allow input <br />from the City Council, Planning Commission and the public prior to the <br />issuance of a building permit. Through this input performance standards <br />affecting such issues as landscaping, signage, buffer zones, lighting, noise, <br />litter and odors can be enhanced ff needed. <br /> <br />s:Xplannin g\scott\oa9616cc.doc <br /> <br /> <br />
