The site will also include an outdoor patio and enhanced landscaping which will contribute to the aesthetics of the area. 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 drive-through will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of those residing or working in the vicinity as it is designed and intended to generate the least amount of impacts as possible. The drive-through lane meets the City’s stacking requirements and will allow for a minimum of eight cars to queue without disrupting drive aisles or on-site parking spaces. In addition, vehicle queuing at the driveway is not anticipated to exceed two vehicles, and vehicles queuing in the drive-through lane will have adequate space to queue within the project and will not enter onto First Street. The drive-through operation is also designed to generate minimal noise impacts as the speaker boards are located towards the rear of the site and are oriented towards First Street. Any potential noise generated from the idling of vehicles or the drive-through speakers is not anticipated to impact the closest residential uses as those residential uses are approximately 120 feet away to the east and are separated from the project site by a retail store. However, the distance from the entrance of the proposed restaurant to the nearest residential building is over 180 feet away. This additional distance will further minimize any potential impacts from the restaurant’s drive-through and after-hours operations. Lastly, the site has been designed to include a large landscape area and a seven-foot perimeter block wall, which will buffer light and noise impacts to the residential uses. Moreover, the drive-through lane is at the rear of the property, which produces minimal visual impact to First Street or McClay Street as the new building will be the prominent view from the street. The site design will include 24-inch box trees and large shrubs planted along the northern and western property line to create a visual buffer between the drive- through lane and the commercial building to the north and to the west. 3 -10
