Title
Public Hearing: Application #PL2022-405 - Preliminary Development Plan - Summer Moon Coffee, 699 NW Blue Parkway; Yaeger Architecture, applicant.
Body
Issue/Request:
Summer Moon Coffee intends to occupy the northernmost tenant space in the existing 7,500 sq. ft., multi-tenant retail building addressed 691-699 NW Blue Pkwy. Summer Moon Coffee seeks to offer drive-through service. The existing multi-tenant building has no drive-through facility. Construction of a drive-through facility is considered a substantial change to the existing retail center and thus triggers the requirement for preliminary development plan approval. There is no expansion of the existing retail center building associated with this application, nor are any significant exterior changes proposed to the building. The only exterior change associated with the drive-through is changing out the existing opaque man-door at the rear of the tenant space with a glass door from which the drive-through transaction will take place.
