A reduction in <br />parking spaces could also be requested during the Site Plan Review once a parking <br />study has been completed. <br />City Planner Beekman stated on October 27, 2008, the City Council adopted the <br />"Guiding Plan for the B2 District". Following the adoption, Staff recommended <br />several ordinance amendments. One of these amendments was to clarify the intent <br />of the existing regulations by adding a definition for "drive -up windows" and to <br />extend the regulations for drive-in business, automobile stations and fast food <br />restaurants with drive -up windows. The purpose of the action is to further clarify <br />the intent of Ordinance 2008-014 by applying the now defined term "drive -up <br />windows" to Section 1325.04, Subd. 1 and Subd. 2 of the City Code. The change <br />would generally impact all Zoning Districts, but specifically only new and existing <br />buildings that have adrive-up window, as defined in Section 1305.04. Subd, 52. <br />Mayor Harpstead asked if these changes would change any of the City's current <br />regulations for drive -up windows. <br />City Planner Beekman stated that the City's regulation would not change but <br />rather Staff was recommending adding the term in order to clarify what the <br />regulation is referencing. <br />
