Planning commission approves annexation and PUD for Dutch Bros. drive‑through with conditions
Summary
The Oswego Planning and Zoning Commission approved Quattro Development’s annexation, rezoning and preliminary/final PUD to allow a 989‑sq‑ft Dutch Bros. drive‑through and a future commercial pad, contingent on traffic and facade conditions including a 20% maximum for metal siding and requirements of an Ogden Falls Boulevard recapture agreement.
The Oswego Planning and Zoning Commission voted to approve an annexation, rezoning, subdivision and preliminary/final planned unit development to allow a Dutch Bros. drive‑through on a roughly 2‑acre site east of the Route 34 and Ogden Falls Boulevard intersection.
Planning staff recommended approval provided the developer meets the requirements of Ordinance 2505 and the recapture agreement tied to the Ogden Falls Boulevard traffic impact study, limits metal siding to no more than 20% of the building facade, adds foundation landscaping and provides a drive‑through bailout lane. Staff’s presentation described Lot 1 as a 989‑square‑foot, drive‑through‑focused Dutch Bros and Lot 2 as a conceptual 2,371‑square‑foot commercial building that will not be included in the final PUD until a user is identified.
Mike Hague of Quattro Development, who was sworn for the hearing, told the commission the building “is a very small building, I think, around 989 square feet with no public area inside” and said the team will work with staff and the architect on materials and transparency standards. Hague said the developer commissioned a traffic impact study, which he expected to deliver within a week, and that the project team had discussed access adjustments with IDOT and the village.
Commissioners questioned how changing full‑access points to right‑in/right‑out or moving access would affect nearby properties, notably whether traffic to the adjacent Shell station or a nearby truck terminal could be routed onto the rear service road. Hague said the developer has discussed striping and signage to discourage truck cut‑throughs and that the site’s engineering consultant had spoken favorably with IDOT about locating access farther from the controlled intersection.
After the public‑hearing period concluded with no public speakers, the commission moved to accept the findings of fact and approve the annexation, rezoning and PUD, subject to the staff memo items. A roll call vote recorded by the commission showed the motion carried.
