Home Browse Search

Cafe Cultura is an existing restaurant at 324 West Fourth Street, Unit B. The Barrel Room restaurant previously provided alcoholic beverages for on -premises consumption at 324 West Fourth Street, Unit A. The proposed physical expansion of the existing restaurant located at 324 West Fourth Street, Unit B into the adjacent tenant suite located at 324 West Fourth Street, Unit A will provide additional seating space for the restaurant's patrons. This will also facilitate the operations of the restaurant making the customer experience more pleasing by adding the sale of alcoholic beverages. The proposed sale of alcoholic beverages for on -premises consumption at this location will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant's customers by allowing them the ability to purchase beer and wine with their meal. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary food related amenity. Operational standards applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. 2. That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The proposed physical expansion of the restaurant and sale of alcoholic beverages for on -premises consumption at this location will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity because the operational standards applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license will address any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. In addition, the subject site is not located within immediate proximity to parks, playgrounds, schools, or religious institutions and the building is located approximately 300 feet away from the nearest multi -family residences and approximately 850 feet from the nearest single-family residences. Cafe Cultura has been operating as a bona -fide restaurant and the addition of alcohol will be ancillary to the main use. All of the operational standards identified in SAMC Sec. 41-196 will apply to this establishment. Finally, the sale of alcohol in the restaurant is intended to be incidental to the primary use as an eating establishment and will occur within the premises. 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. Resolution No. 2019-14 Page 2 of 7
