Zoning District: TSA-MUEC-T

A request by Adam Ford of The Richardson Design Partnership, on behalf of the property owner, for approval of a restaurant with a drive-through facility. The subject property is located in the TSA-MUEC-T (Transit Station Area -Mixed Use Employment Center Station- Transition) zoning district at approximately 1699 W. North Temple St. The proposed project is subject to the following petitions:
- Conditional Use – Restaurant with a drive-through facility is permitted in the TSA-MUEC-T zoning district as a conditional use and will require Planning Commission review and decision.
- Planned Development – The development is required to obtain Planned Development approval for the following modification:
- Increase in the amount of on-site parking spaces.
- Design Review – The development is required to go through the Design Review process because the proposal did not obtain enough TSA points to allow for an administrative approval. Projects must receive at least 125 points to be administratively approved and the proposal received 61 points. The applicant is also requesting other slight modifications, which require Design Review approval.
