Mayor Lang asked if a wall is required between 2700 West and the drive through. Steve replied that this is required on 5600 West but not at this location. He noted that there will be 20 feet of landscaping. Mayor Lang opened the Public Hearing. Carl Young indicated that he is the Pastor of the existing church.

Jim Vesock stated that he is concerned about traffic problems this type of development could generate in an already congested area. He noted that he believes this could be better designed. Rob Galanis, the applicant, noted that he owns other property to the north of this parcel and he has has been working with the City to improve and redevelop this area.

He noted that medians and landscaping will be placed throughout the property to deter cross through access in the parking lot and noted that his team worked to ensure good circulation is provided for traffic.

Steve replied that the Development Agreement requires 8 feet, measured from the parking lot grade, and a 10-foot landscaping buffer. Councilmember Huynh verified that there is one entrance/exit from 2700 West. Steve replied yes. He noted that Public Works didn’t want to see left turn conflicts on 2700 West and didn’t want an access point too close to the intersection on 3800 South. Councilmember Huynh expressed concern regarding traffic and safety with the proposed concept. Councilmember Harmon stated that he is concerned that traffic will have to wind through the property with the access point to the south on 2700 West.

Steve stated the application will proceed to either a permitted or conditional use moving forward which is reviewed by staff or the Planning Commission. Councilmember Harmon asked if the Council could required that the street align as part of the Development Agreement.

Councilmember Harmon replied that a continuance could allow the developer time to consider different configurations. He noted that he agrees, it’s in the best interest of the business to create a profitable and successful site layout, but added that he is just concerned about people traveling through the parking lot.
