The Mayor opened the public hearing to consider the application for conditional use permit submitted by Bank Shot Billiards, Inc. for the purpose of operating a billiard center in a portion of the new Rice at C shopping center at 2650 Rice Street. Fahey reported that the Planner has submitted a report dated December 3, 1987 recommending approval of the CUP subject to the requirements as outlined in that report. Fahey also reported that the Planning Commission has recommended approval of the CUP subject to the Planner's recommendations, however, allowing up to 8 amusement devices on premises and setting the hours of operation from 8 A.M. until 2 A.M. Mr. Michael Schifsky, representing Bank Shot Billiards, appeared before the Council and reported that in drawing up the floor plan for the site there is room for 6 amusement devices. Schifsky stated that these devices will not be the primary function of the billiard center, but the business does lend itself to these devices. Schifsky also reported that since the Planning Commission meeting there has been a change in that the center would be locating one bay further to the north in the shopping center and would not be directly adjacent to Food and Fuel. Schifsky pointed out that the billiard center would have only one entrance which would be used exclusively by the billiard center. The center would take up about 35% of the total shopping center site, or about 3,720 square feet. Scalze asked who the other tenents in the shopping center will be. Page 92
