3.  PUBLIC HEARING Case 1776-SUP/The Improv. Public hearing, discussion, and take action on a recommendation regarding an ordinance changing the zoning on property located at 4980 Belt Line Road, Suite 250 and Suite 100A, which property is currently zoned Planned Development (PD), through Ordinance 001-002, by approving a new Special Use Permit for a restaurant with the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption only, in order to allow an expansion in floor area.
  Discussion:
Charles Goff, Assistant Director of Development Services and Planning, presented the Staff Report.
 
Vice Chair Linda Groce inquired about the lease status of Suite 100A. Charles Goff responded that while it is unclear when the lease was executed for this space, the applicant has started work on the portion of the space that does not require a Special Use Permit.
 
Commissioner Jerry Dougan inquired about the three remaining vacant suites. Charles Goff responded that there are actually four vacant suites at the present time, but there are already plans to lease one of those to the new restaurant, Butcher Block. With regard to the remaining three vacant suites, there are a number of options that can be explored by the property owner in order to stay within the zoning code requirement, including keeping certain suites permanently vacant or acquiring tenants with uses that require less parking.
 
Commissioner John Meleky inquired about the number of other centers around Town that are in a similar situation. Charles Goff responded that there are probably three or four other shopping centers that have to coordinate tenant leases based on parking requirements.

The applicant, Tom Castillo, and the property owner, Doug Howell, answered questions from the Commission about the hours of operation and peak times, offsite valet parking location and number of parking spaces, maximum occupancy, the number of patrons using the valet service, impact of the valet staging area on the ground floor businesses, circulation of the parking lot with and without valet service, utilizing off-site parking spaces for valet before on-site spaces, security and enforcement on site, and customer circulation within, as well as around, the building.
 
Chair Kathryn Wheeler opened the meeting as a public hearing.
