Title
Public Hearing: Application #PL2020-280 - Preliminary Development Plan - Streets of West Pryor, Lots 1 and 2, 2051 and 2061 NW Lowenstein Dr; Street of West Pryor, LLC, applicant.
(NOTE: This item was continued from January 5, 2021 per staff's request.)
Body
Issue/Request:
The applicant proposes a 2-lot commercial development consisting of a sit-down restaurant and a drive-thru restaurant located 2061 and 2051 NW Lowenstein Dr., respectively. The total square footage for the sit-down restaurant is approximately 5,549 sq. ft. and the drive-thru restaurant is approximately 3,200 sq. ft. in size.
A preliminary development plan for the subject two (2) lots was approved in 2019 as part of the overall Streets of West Pryor development and consisted of two sit-down restaurants, each approximately 6,500 sq. ft. in size. The applicant has since identified a need to adjust the size and type of use for the lot(s) to allow for smaller buildings and for a drive-thru restaurant.
The Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) does not authorize staff to administratively approve substantial changes to previously approved preliminary development plans. The change from a 6,500 square foot sit-down restaurant to a 3,200 sq. ft. drive-thru restaurant reaches the threshold of a substantial change from the previously approved preliminary development plan. The proposed layout and architectural appearance of the building on Lot 1 is generally unchanged from the previously approved preliminary development plan. However, the proposed drive-thru restaurant on Lot 2 is a different concept from what was previously approved, featuring a smaller building footprint, a drive-thru, and the use of an exterior metal material.
