Motion seconded by Davison. Motion carried 6 – 0. The City Planner stated that Hearth Development has submitted a request for a final state Planned Unit Development to redevelop the property at 3338 Rice Street for a new Taco John’s restaurant, along with additional space for a second casual fast food restaurant. He stated that the project would include the removal of the existing building and construction of a new building on a new parcel made of the existing Taco John’s lot, along with additional land that was an outlot from the Cardigan Ridge plat. He explained that the City Council approved the Preliminary Plat and Development stage PUD earlier this year with a series of conditions necessary to address as a part of a Final State PUD review. The City Planner stated that the applicant has submitted an updated plan that appears to have addressed the requirements of the Development Stage review. The City Planner stated that the site plan shows 30 total parking spaces, and the applicant indicates that overflow parking would be available on the Cardigan Ridge site which has excess parking available. He noted that Taco John’s requires 13 parking spaces, in addition to the drive-through, resulting in 17 additional spaces on the site for the second tenant. He explained that this amount should serve the site. He stated that signage plans can be submitted under the regular code allowances as long as the applicant will meet the signage code requirements. He noted that the final landscaping and lighting plans submitted are consistent with zoning ordinance requirements. Schletty-Flores asked if the other tenant would also have a drive-through window. The City Planner stated that with these types of small restaurants it is not uncommon for them to share a drive-thru. The City Planner stated that Staff recommends approval of the Final PUD with the following conditions: 1. Recording of a cross-parking agreement with Cardigan Ridge for overflow parking when necessary. 2. Final signage plans meet the requirements of the City’s sign regulations and applicable architectural guideline requirements. 3. Compliance with the terms of the City Engineer’s review of the final plan set. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT FINAL REVIEW – TACO JOHN’S, 3338 RICE STREET, HEARTH DEVELOPMENT
