Staff Recommendation Approval of the Planned Commercial District as requested except for the possiblity of a drive through. SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE ACTION: (7-23-87) A brief discussion of this proposal centered upon whether or not it was appropriate to introduce a drive-thru window for customers on the rear of this building. The Traffic Engineer's Office indicated that it opposed such a proposal with the design constraints now in place. Mr. Koornstra of the Traffic Engineering Office will look at the modifications which may be needed if the Planning Commission determines a drive-thru is appropriate. There were no other issues of consequence attached to this proposal. The Water Works indicated they had no comment on the application. Wastewater indicated they did not have comments.

The motion passed by a vote of 9 ayes, 0 noes, 1 absent, 1 open position. 4 May 31, 1988 SUBDIVISIONS ITEM NO. 14 NAME: Maury Mitchell Revised PCD LOCATION: Alamo and West Markham APPLICANT: Maury Mitchell REQUEST: To revise an approved PCD by the addition of a canvas awning A. Staff Report: The applicant is requesting that he be allowed to provide a canvas awning that extends 13.5' into a 15' drive on the southern side of the site. He has been informed by Enforcement that the canvas awning is viewed as an extension of the building into the side yard area. Staff is very opposed to this request due to: (1) its close proximity to the single family use, (2) location near Bowman Road entrance that could cause stacking problems to the west, (3) the fact that it was built illegally, staff does not want to condone illegal construction of any type. The minutes to the original PCD approval on August 11, 1987 are attached. Engineering pointed out that there were "traffic circulation problems with respect to a drive -through on the rear of this structure." The Traffic Engineer and Planning Staff agreed a drive - through drop off was inappropriate due to design constraints. After the approval of the PCD, subject to no drive -through, the Applicant still constructed the awning without consulting staff. For the protection of Rock Zoning Ordinance ture or the equivalent Staff Recommendations: Denial. light and air, the City of Little defines an awning as being a struc- of a roof type structure. May 31, 1988 Item No. 14 - Continued PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (May 31, 1988) This request was represented by Mr. Don Dailey and Mr. Maury Mitchell. Staff reported that a letter in opposition was received from a neighborhood resident, Ms. Agnes Bell. Staff explained that the previous Traffic Engineer recommended against a drive -through, due to the narrow width of the drive, parking spaces to the east which would interfere with stacking space, and the blind corners. The Applicants argued that this was a different issue and that they did not realize they were in violation of the PUD process. Finally, a motion for approval of the request was made and passed, but subject to a deed restriction in the Bill of Assurance that prohibits enclosure of a drive - through.
