FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. The Tepanyaki Japanese Steak House was the prior business on the subject property.
2. Retail food service is a permitted use in the SC2 zone.
3. Non-residential zoning surrounds the subject property.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The Chick Fil A proposals offers to reconstruct the site entirely to meet today’s
standards and provide them with a modernized building that meets their business plan.
The following is a breakdown of the new site elements:
Building
Parking
Drive Through
- 5,295 square feet/1-story/127 seats;
- 53 required/76 provided with two ADA stalls;
- new drive through designed to stack up to 18 vehicles;
The property shall receive various upgrades from its current condition, including a new
perimeter public sidewalk with ADA access, a new trash enclosure, new landscaping,
new parking, and new site lighting. The SC2 zone is primarily a commercial/retail zone
and permits this type of use.
CONCLUSIONS:
Chick Fil A is basically resuming the previous use of the property, and will restore if not
increase that former retail tax to the City. The redevelopment of the subject property
will not only modernize the site, but provide several upgrades to the improvements that
are currently there. All these reasons and more make this proposal a welcome project
to the City.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
City staff recommends that the Planning Commission APPROVE the redevelopment
proposal to bring Chick Fil A to the subject property as presented, including the
following conditions:
1. The owner/applicant is to complete the CRC review process, satisfying all
comments and requirements prior to the issuance of a building permit.
