DISCUSSION: As discussed in the HISTORY section of this report, this is the third request for a restaurant Special Use Permit in this lease space since 1995. It was first occupied by a bagel shop, then a smoothie/juice bar and now a Thai restaurant with private club. Per the ordinance adopted by Council on July 9th, this restaurant would have qualified for administrative approval given that the size, signage, parking requirements, etc., remain the same; however, since this request includes a private club, a Public Hearing process is required. The restaurant will contain 1,241-square feet and have a seating capacity of 22. The hours of operation are requested to be as follows: 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and 5 to 10 p.m. Monday -Thursday 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and 5 to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 5 to 9 p.m. on Sunday. To allow for maximum flexibility for the owner, staff is recommending that the hours of operation be fi'om 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. seven days a week. The restaurant will not be required to be open all these hours. Having 17 feet of frontage, the requested 17-square-foot sign, with mounted ivory channel letters, projecting 5 inches fi'om the surface, is in compliance with the sign ordinance.
