HISTORY:
This properly was platted in 1987 and replatted in 1992. City
Council granted approval of a 10,000 square-foot retail building site
plan on May 11, 1999. On November 9, 1999, Council approved a
revised plan, reducing the building size to 8,000-square feet. This
limited the restaurant usage on the entire 4.6 acres of property to a
total of 17,300-square feet of both interior/exterior space, provided
parking requirements were met. Phase II contained 48 parking
spaces and a loading space for the new facility. This restaurant use

will be the only one permitted in this facility, as the remainder of the
parking can accommodate only non-restaurant retail uses.
TRANSPORTATION:
MacArthur Boulevard is a P6D divided major thoroughfare built to
standard in a 1 I0' right-of-way. Beltline Road is shown on the
Thoroughfare Plan as a P6D divided major thoroughfare built to
standard in a 120' tight-of-way.

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property as
suitable for regional retail uses.
DISCUSSION:
This request is to allow a 1,500 square-foot Subway restaurant to occupy
one of the lease spaces in the 8,000 square-foot building west of
McDonalds, off Beltline Road. This is a standard Subway restaurant,
without a drive-through (only dine in and/or carry out). There are proposed
to be four four-seat tables and three two-seat tables (22 seats total). The
applicant has requested that the hours of operation not exceed 10 a.m. to
10 p.m., seven days a week.
Per the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, parking for this use is
required at a ratio of one space per 100-square feet, thus requiring 15
parking spaces. There are a total of 48 parking spaces on site. Thirty-three
will remain available for the additional 6,500-square feet of vacant space.
As indicated within the previous site plan approval, the remaining space
will be restricted from restaurant use and limited to the uses that have a
parking ratio of a maximum one space per 200-square feet.
This lease space will have 19' of frontage on Beltline Road; therefore, the
requested 18.83 square-foot sign is allowable per the Sign Ordinance. The
sign faces are proposed to be white without any raceway proposed. The
illumination shall be limited to white or off-white.
