The SUP <br /> amendment would allow the applicant to construct a new doorway on the west side of the <br /> existing building with a 4' x II' sign above that doorway, The applicant is also requesting <br />I providing patio seating on the west side of the building. This variance would allow the <br /> establishment ofa principal (multi-operation) fast food use (Quizno's) within 1,320 feet of <br /> another fast food use (McDonald's) at 1313 County Road E. <br />I Mr. Ringwald noted the Planning Commissiou recommends denial of the SUP amendmeut aud <br />I variance, and recommends that the landscaping previously required in the last SUP (PC #94-25) <br /> be installed no later than May 31, 1997. He further stated the Planning Commission <br /> recommends allowing Quizno's to operate as an accessory use to the convenience store. The <br />I Quizno's would be limited to the space (Exhibit A, page 5 of 8), signage (Exhibit A, page 7 of8) <br /> and store access (Exhibit A, page 5 of 8) which currently exists. <br />I Mr. Ringwald further noted the applicant has agreed to the recommendations of the Planniug <br /> Commissiou in regards to PC #94-25, and will plant the additional landscape material this spring. <br />I Councilmember Aplikowski inquired regarding the size of the suggested addition. Mr. Ringwald <br /> stated it was mostly modifications, those being changes in the signage, the window and door <br /> being added to the west side of the building, and a small patio adjacent to the west side of the <br />.. building. <br /> CounciJmember Aplikowski asked for c1arificatiou that the Planning Commission had denied <br />I this request. Mr. Ringwald stated that was the case. Mr. Ringwald further stated that, according <br /> to the Planning Commission's recommendations, the applicant could use only the existing <br />I signage, could make use of only the pre-existing deli area, and could not add a patio on the west <br /> side of the building. Mr. Ringwald stated it was the desire of the staff to clarify for the <br /> applicants what could and could not be allowed in this matter. <br />I Councilmember Malone inquired if the repair facility was considered another separate business. <br /> Mr. Ringwald stated that this was the case, and easements were in place to that effect. <br />I Councilmember Malone indicated he does not remember the deli being approved in the plans as <br /> they were submitted in 1994. Mr. Ringwald stated he was uot with the City at that time, but that <br />I the Planning files and the minutes do not reflect that a deli was discussed or approved. <br /> Councilmember Aplikowski inquired that if a door were to be placed on the west side of the <br />I building, what would happen to the existing parking spaces. Mr. Ringwald stated the parking <br /> would stay the same as it is now. He further stated the Planning Commission felt that the <br /> addition of a door and a patio would make the deli closer to a principal use. <br />I Councilmember Aplikowski expressed concern that the plans showed the window being placed <br />,. very close to the oven. She further inquired regarding the necessity of a door on the west side of <br /> the building. <br />I <br />
