Project Information
COF Project Number: 6514
Applicant: Ken Crowder, Martin Consulting & Engineering, LLC
Owner: Armen Parker, McDonalds Corporation
Background/Staff Comments
The applicant is requesting a Development Plan revision to ask for a modification of standards in the off-street parking amount. The applicant is also proposing to enclose the PlayPlace and include seating within.
Modifications of Standards
The applicant is requesting to lower the off-street parking standard for Drive In/Drive Through Restaurant of 0.67 spaces per seat to 0.53 per seat as per Section 5.9.4 Table 5-9. The applicant has provided a Traffic Study prepared by a consultant. Staff supports the requested Modification of Standard because the traffic study showed that peak parking demand would be lower than the current available parking spaces. As stated in the Traffic Study; “Based on our analysis of the proposed McDonald’s remodel site plan and our data collection efforts of the existing site, the project is expected to have a positive impact on the traffic flow and circulation of the study area.”
Staff recommends Approval of the Modification of Standards.
Recommendation
