Summary

The commission approved a conditional-use permit allowing beer and wine sales at the Cheers Food Court and Bar (a food-truck park) after staff recommended approval subject to conditions; the applicant will serve alcohol from a food truck and nearby property owners were notified.

The San Juan City Commission on Monday approved a conditional-use permit allowing sale of beer and wine at Cheers Food Court and Bar, a food-truck park on Business Highway 83.

Miss Monica Gomez, the city's intern director of finance, presented the request and said the food court currently has seven food trucks and has operated for about three years. "They are proposing to sell alcoholic beverages as complement of those food served at the park," Gomez said, and staff recommended approval subject to requirements in the attached report and the planning and zoning commission's recommendation.

During questions, staff confirmed the applicant would comply with the conditions and that alcohol would be served from a food truck in the park. Staff also said public notice had been sent to eight property owners and that no public comments in favor or against the request had been received. A motion to approve passed by voice vote with 'Aye' recorded.

Why it matters: Allowing on-site alcohol sales can affect neighborhood noise, public-safety planning and enforcement; the commission approved the permit subject to compliance with the conditions listed in staff materials.

Next steps: The permit is subject to the listed conditions in the planning report; staff and the applicant must comply with those requirements.
