5. PUBLIC HEARING Case 1781-SUP/Cinco Tacos Cocina & Tequila and 67 Street Food. Public hearing, discussion, and take action on a recommendation regarding an ordinance changing the zoning on property located at 5000 Belt Line Road, Suite 850, which property is currently zoned PD, Planned Development, through Ordinance 004-001, by approving a Special Use Permit for a restaurant with the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption only, in order to allow an additional restaurant concept and floor plan revision within the existing restaurant.
  Discussion:
Charles Goff, Assistant Director of Development Services and Planning, presented the Staff Report.
 
Commissioner Souers inquired whether the applicant has been informed about the upcoming discussion on size and wording of the existing sign. Charles Goff confirmed that the applicant is aware and acknowledges that while having the word “tequila” in the sign is important to him, moving forward with this new concept will most likely result in a smaller sign and possibly the inclusion of the Town’s requirement against the use of terms or graphic depictions that relate to alcoholic beverages in any exterior signage.
 
The applicant’s representative, Edna Lopez, answered questions from the Commission regarding the restaurant brand, new concept and menu, business operations for both concepts, as well as signage.
 
Chair Kathryn Wheeler opened the meeting as a public hearing.
 
Public Hearing:
There were no speakers on this item.

Chair Kathryn Wheeler closed the public hearing.

Commissioner Resnik inquired whether changing the name of the restaurant would require going back through the Special Use Permit Process. Charles Goff indicated that the Special Use Permit process adopts a floor plan and any restaurant abiding by this floor plan can operate, despite changes in their name.
 
Commissioner Souers added that without the Town’s typical condition restricting the use of terms or graphic depictions that relate to alcoholic beverages in any exterior signage, if this restaurant closes, a new restaurant will be able to install exterior signage related to alcoholic beverages. The commission had a discussion with regard to this restriction.

Motion: Recommend approval of the proposed Special Use Permit subject to the following condition:
  • The applicant shall not use any terms or graphic depictions that relate to alcoholic beverages in any exterior signage.
  Moved by Commissioner Tom Souers, Seconded by Vice Chair Linda Groce
 
AYE: Chair Kathryn Wheeler, Vice Chair Linda Groce, Commissioner Robert Catalani, Commissioner Jerry Dougan, Commissioner Eileen Resnik, Commissioner Tom Souers
Passed
There being no further business before the Commission, the meeting was adjourned.
