Betty's Pies, page 2 `entry point' for both this restaurant and the building that will be built on the adjacent lot to the east. The •pplicant has been informed by staff that the continuation of the plaza as shown on these plans will need to occur on the adjacent lot, and that the location of the main entrance away from the street right -of -way will not be something that is allowed in other locations within the development. The proposed Betty's Pies building is located in a Commercial Land Use Area and takes up both lot 3 and part of lot 4 in Block A (according to the land use plan of the Lino Lakes Town Center Design & Development Guide). Acceptable Building Type is Commercial with a minimum number of floors for all uses of one and a maximum of 3. The Regulating plan of the development guide includes the required street framework, which is currently under construction as part of the city's improvements in the area. This will include the pedestrian streetscape as part of a future phase of construction. The plan also indicates a build -to line for this portion of that block which will require that the building be close to the edge of the street to create an intimate pedestrian environment. The Regulating Plan does not indicate any `Required Building Entries' on this site, nor any `Gateways'. Allowable Uses The proposed use for this site is a family -style restaurant.
