Conditional Use Permit No. 2007-23 December 10, 2007 Page 2 Project Description The applicant is proposing to expand and remodel an existing Carl's Jr. Restaurant. The project includes an 859 square foot addition to the existing restaurant that will be used for the indoor play area and restrooms. Along with the expansion, the project will include both interior and exterior improvements to the restaurant, as well as upgrades to the site (Exhibits 3 through 8). The hours of operation for the restaurant are 24 hours a day, seven days a week and no additional conditional use permit is needed as the project site is not located within 150 feet of residential properties. The exterior improvements include an upgrade to the existing facade on all four elevations. A contemporary architectural style will be used for the project, which will feature a smooth stucco finish, slate accents, aluminum store front windows, and metal canopies as accent features. The existing outdoor children's play area will be relocated to the interior of the building and completely enclosed thereby leaving the front yard setback clear for landscape improvements. The remodel will create a strong architectural presence along Bristol Street as the building will be the main focus. The proposed facade remodel will be consistent with the Citywide Design Guidelines and the Urban Design Element of the General Plan. Additional improvements include the redesign of the existing drive-through lane to comply with the City's stacking requirement for drive-through window service. The new drive-through lane will include a raised curb that will separate both the existing drive aisles and parking stalls. An existing trash enclosure will be relocated near the restaurant to allow for easier disposal of trash. An existing pole sign near the southwest corner of the property along Bristol Street will be removed, with any new sign complying with the City's standards for freestanding signage. Lastly, the project will include building and site improvements to comply with the City's Building Security Ordinance. The proposed project will include landscape improvements to comply with the commercial landscape standards. Additional landscaping will be added along both Bristol Street and Central Avenue. As the existing children's outdoor play area along Bristol Street will be moved back and enclosed, additional landscaping will be added along the Bristol Street frontage. This setback will include a total of four Canary Island Pines that will comply with the South Bristol Street Improvement Plan. Lastly, additional landscape planters will be added to comply with the City's landscape requirement. 31 C-3
