Applicant: Jay George
SAP#: Second Visit
Variation Requested: None
Recommendations Regarding Variations:
Section 16-18I.015 (Streetscape Regulations able): Pharr Road is designated as a Type 3 street which requires a 10-foot clear zone and a 5-foot landscape/amenity zone. The applicant is proposing a variation to reduce the clear zone to 7 feet 8 inches and retains the 5-foot amenity zone for a distance of 50 feet 6 inches to incorporate a single row of four top tables for outdoor dining.
Recommendation: In an effort to minimize the reduction of the sidewalk clear zone, the committee recommends the applicant reduce the length of the proposed outdoor dining area by approximately 5 feet on the end adjacent to the main entrance of the establishment. This reduction will maintain a substantial sense of arrival while relieving some of the constriction of the clear zone for the block face as a whole.
Provided the applicant accommodates these changes and because the proposed plan is associated with a restaurant use that only allows for seated dining in the outdoor area and does not include any temporary serving or bar areas in the outdoor area, the committee recommends approval of the requested variation.
The Development Committee requests the applicant submit a revised plan electronically prior to issuance of the SAP by the City staff.
