Commission approves multi‑tenant commercial building with drive‑through after safety tweaks
Summary
The APC approved PSDP‑26‑4 — an 11,50 sq ft multi‑tenant commercial building with a drive‑through — contingent on adding a bypass/escape lane, removing two southwest parking spaces for safety, and matching a trash enclosure to building materials; staff conditions and drainage board approval remain required.
The commission approved a development plan for a multi‑tenant commercial building with an associated drive‑through (PSDP‑26‑4) after asking the applicant to make specific safety and circulation changes. Staff said the project is in a C‑3 zoning district at the southeast corner of 900 East and East 600 North and includes an 11,50 square‑foot primary tenant area plus a separate 4,820 square‑foot multi‑tenant section. "Stormwater review is ongoing and Wessler is reviewing new submittals," staff noted.
Tim Dwyer, the project's designer, explained that the drive‑through operation typically uses crew members to manage queue flow; commissioners nevertheless required a physical bypass/escape lane and recommended removing one or two parking spaces near a tight entrance to improve turning radii. Commissioners and staff agreed the developer would remove two spaces and add a bypass lane; the motion to approve with those conditions and standard staff findings passed by voice vote. The applicant also confirmed the trash enclosure will match the building materials and that lighting concerns involving an existing adjacent pole were due to spill from that existing light, not new fixtures.
