Summary

The St. Joseph Planning Commission voted to temporarily suspend enforcement of off-street parking requirements for La Playas proposed outdoor dining patio and directed the applicant to return with detailed materials and renderings for any future freestanding structure.

The St. Joseph Planning Commission on a voice vote approved a temporary suspension of the citys off-street parking enforcement so La Playa can reinstall a patio at the rear of its building.

Staff told the commission the proposed patio would remove about eight parking spaces from a site that staff calculates currently holds roughly 23 spaces; after accounting for other constraints the facility would effectively have about 16 spaces remaining. Staff said the building predates modern parking regulations and asked commissioners for direction on the appeal of an administrative permit denial.
