4.11 Oops Theater anticipates an initial Friday and Saturday evening performance (6:00 to 10:30); a Sunday matinee (12:00 to 4:15); and a weekday matinee (12:00 to 3:30), which times will not typically conflict with the peak customer volume of the bar/restaurant. On a typical Friday or Saturday evening the sit-down restaurant is busy between 5:00 and 8:00 p.m. while the bar has limited patrons. After 8:00 p.m. the bar area has seen an increase in patrons while the sit-down restaurant has seen a reduction. Currently the facility (bar and restaurant portion) is experiencing a capacity of 60% or less on a Friday or Saturday evening. 4.12 Section 1018.08 of the Roseville City Code requires on-site parking at a minimum of: space far every 2.5 seats in the sit-down portion of the restaurant; 1 space for every 20 sq. ft. of bar, lounge, public area, and game room; 1 space for every 50 sq. ft. of each skybox; 1 space for every 50 sq. ft. of banquet area; and 1 space for every 5 seats in the outdoor seating area. The site has 172 spaces and the owners has a contract (Edina Realty lot) for 98 spaces and verbal agreements (Ford and North Suburban Clinic) for 106 spaces, for a total useable parking allowance of 376 spaces. 4.13 The Community Development staff has reviewed the function of the premises and concludes that the parking is adequate with a proof-of-parking permit. 5.0 REVIEW of CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT: 5.1 Section 1013.01 requires the City to consider the following criteria when reviewing a Conditional Use Permit: a. Impact on traffic b. Impacts on parks, streets and other public facilities c. Compatibility of the site plan, internal circulation, landscaping and structure with contiguous properties d. Impact of the use on market value of contiguous properties e. Impact on the general public health, safety and welfare f. Compatibility with the City's Comprehensive Plan 5.3 Permitted Uses. The City Planner has reviewed the proposed "change in use" and concludes that the re-use of an existing banquet area is permissible — and permitted in a B-2, Retail Business District by issuance of a Conditional Use Permit. 5.4 Traffic. The addition of Oops Theater will not increase traffic volumes anticipated when the initial permit was issued. However, staff does conclude that site parking demand (including shared facilities) and adjacent roadways may experience a reduction in the original volume of vehicles due to the dinner theater. Specifically, large groups will be bused to the site and theater patrons tend to travel in larger groups than those who patronize a bar/restaurant. 5.5 Compatibility. The use (dinner theater) is a compatible use which will have no impact on the existing/approved site plan or internal traffic circulation. PF3709_ RPCA_020106.doc Page 3 of 4
