Lebanon planners approve Dutch Bros site plan with two variances
Loading...
Summary
The Planning Commission approved a Dutch Bros drive-through site plan at 506 South Cumberland Street, granting two variances to allow an alternative transparency treatment and to accept an outdoor covered patio in lieu of a street-facing primary entrance.
The Lebanon Planning Commission approved a site plan and two variances for a proposed Dutch Bros at 506 South Cumberland Street (approximately 0.78 acres in Ward 3).
Staff told the commission that two variances remained: first, that facades facing the public street meet a 20% transparency requirement and second, that a primary pedestrian entrance face a street. Staff recommended both variances be approved because the applicant provides a covered outdoor pavilion that will functionally meet the transparency and entrance intent.
A commissioner moved to approve the site plan with both variances according to staff recommendations; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The transcript records staff recommendation and the commission's approval but does not include a roll-call vote tally.
The approval is conditioned on the applicant resolving the outstanding staff comments and implementing the covered outdoor space described in the plans.
