REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION DATE: 03/12/01 ITEM NO: 1-2 D Manager Agenda Section: LAND USE Request by Heritage Realty Management, Inc and Border Foods to amend Planned Unit Development Agreement # 1199 to add an additional sign and increase drive-thru hours of operation for the Taco Bell, 1101 Larpenteur Avenue. (PF3290) 1.0 BACKGROUND 1.1 Heritage Realty, Inc. and Border Foods have requested an amendment to the Roseville Center Planned Unit Development Agreement (# 1199) to add a sign to the north of the building facade and to increase the hours of operation for the drive-thru till 2:00 a.m. every day of the week. 1.2 Border Foods has indicated that the added signage along Lexington A venue (specifically the Roseville Center multi tenant sign) and the soon to be completed streetscape improvements reduces the presence and visibility of the Taco Bell facility as one travels from the north to the south. Further, Border Foods wants to remain competitive in the marketplace and desires to increase the drive-thru hours of operation until 2:00 a.m. Hours ,of operation would not automatically be extended, but would depend on the marketplace, employment, and a cost/benefit analysis. 2.0 HISTORY - HOURS of OPERATION 2.1 The City approved the Roseville Center PUD and Taco Bell developments in March 1998. During the consideration of these projects, the Planning Commission supported hours of operation from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. determining the impact to adjacent residential properties to be minimal. However, on March 10, 1998 the City Council spent considerable time discussing the hours of operation finally deciding that hours should be limited to midnight on weekdays and I :00 a.m. on weekends. As well, the Council specified that Taco Bell's hours of operation should be reviewed in 18 months. 2.2 After 18 month hours of operation, the staff was to review PUD # 1199: "...Any use on Lot 1, including the proposed restaurant, shall not operate past 12 midnight on Sunday through Thursday or past 1:00 a.m. on Friday and Saturday. These hours of operation shall be reviewed by the Community Development Director within 18 months of the date a business opens on this site, with a report being submitted to the Planning Commission and the City Council. Based upon the findings of this report (which will review parking, traffic, noise, light and any police record), the City Council may modify the hours of operation. " 2.3 The business opened in November 1998. Staff completed its review and presented its findings regarding the 18-month review to the City Council on June 27, 2000.
