293 . <br /> <br />Conditional Use Permit No. 96-25 <br />September 3, 1996 <br /> <br />Findinqs <br /> <br />Will the proposed use provide a service or facility which will <br />contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or the <br />community? <br /> <br />Drive-through window service is not in keeping with the <br />professional uses in the area and therefore will not contribute <br />to the general well being. <br /> <br />Will the proposed use, under the circumstances of the particular case, <br />be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons <br />residing or working in the vicinity? <br /> <br />A drive-through restaurant may adversely impact persons residing <br />or working in the vicinity. Commercial uses require signage in <br />excess of that required by professional uses. Typical signage <br />for a drive-through restaurant would detract from the character <br />of the area which has subdued signage due to the destination <br />character of the uses. Further, a drive-through use may create <br />trash issues beyond the limits of the restaurant property. <br /> <br />Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic stability <br />or future economic development of property in the surrounding area? <br /> <br />A drive-through restaurant would not be in character with this <br />segment of Main Street. Land uses in this area are destination <br />oriented and not dependent upon excessive signage to attract <br />customers that traditional general commercial users require. <br />The lack of excessive signage along this segment contributes <br />significantly to the image and character of this district as a <br />high quality professional office district. <br /> <br />Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and conditions <br />specified in this chapter for such a use? <br /> <br />Because the project has not completed the City's required review <br />process, compliance with code requirement has not been achieved. <br />Site issues involving circulation, property lines, signage and <br />architecture remain outstanding and cause the project to be <br />deemed not in compliance. <br /> <br />Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan of the City <br />or any specific plan applicable to the area of the proposed use? <br /> <br />The area surrounding the project has developed as a high quality <br />mid-rise office district acting as a gateway to the MainPlace <br />District Center from downtown. The professional uses within <br />this segment of Main Street provide a sensitive and compatible <br />transition to the adjacent residential land use. A drive- <br />through restaurant would not be in character with the <br />established office land use pattern. <br /> <br />EXHIBIT A <br /> <br /> <br />
