Millers Crossroads Shopping Center • page 6 • CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR DRIVE THROUGH AND OUTDOOR SEATING Drive Through: The original 2003 approval of this site included one driveway from Lakota Trail to the parking lot to the front (north) of the building. The initial 2005 -06 proposal included a second driveway to create a drive through route to a drive up window for the coffee shop. This second driveway has been removed from the July 2006 plan. Drive through traffic will enter on the single driveway that serves the site, go around the building in a counter clockwise direction, and exit with the same driveway. Outdoor Seating: The new plan shows the outdoor seating area on the north or front side of the building. • Standards and Requirements for All Conditional Use Permits The zoning ordinance includes overall standards that apply to all CUPs.
