APPROVED BY CITY ADMINISTRATOR: Michael Guttman SIGNAT
Jace Food Group, LLC is proposing an amendment to the Planned Unit Development (PUD) with de-
viations from the Zoning Code for Lot 3 of the Kmart PUD, now known as Mosaic Crossing, to rede-
sign the layout of an existing drive-through for a proposed fast-service restaurant known as Tropical
Smoothie Café. The property is commonly known as 1865 N Neltnor Boulevard and is located on the
east side of Neltnor Boulevard north of the intersection with North Avenue. In addition to the drive-
through, the establishment will have indoor service and seating. Both a restaurant and a drive-through
are permitted uses within the B-3 Regional Shopping District. The existing drive-through configuration
was designed specifically for a previous bank operation on the site rather than for a fast-service res-
taurant use. The petitioner is redesigning the layout of the drive-through to accommodate the Tropical
Smoothie Café.
The proposed drive-through will have the five required vehicle stacking spaces, and associated
equipment and menu signage, located in the front yard. Section 12.8-3 (E) (Signs — Drive-through res-
taurant signs) requires drive-through menu signs to be located in the side or rear yard only and Sec-
tion 13.3 (C) (Off-Street Parking and Loading — Parking and Loading Spaces Required) of the Zoning
Code prohibits vehicle stacking and associated equipment in the front yard, unless approved by City
Council.
The Plan Commissioners voted unanimously (4-0) to recommend approval of the requested Special
Use Permit.
ACTIONS PROPOSED:

ment with deviations.
