Commission recommends approval for conversion of former Sonic into sit-down restaurant
Summary
A proposal to convert an old Sonic station into a sit-down restaurant (zoning case 2026-203-ZC) was recommended for approval 7–0; applicant said building is 1,704 sq ft and plans seating for about 20–40 patrons.
Khalid Max Saif (speaker 16) told the commission he purchased an old Sonic and seeks to convert the existing 1,704-square-foot building into a sit-down restaurant with seating for roughly 20–40 people, a kitchen and dining area. Saif said he submitted floor and site plans to building inspections and is awaiting approvals for plumbing and other permits.
Commissioners asked whether the proposal involves an addition or re-use of the existing building; Saif said the existing building would be renovated and that he submitted required plans to the city. After brief questions, a commissioner moved to send the zoning case to City Council with a recommendation of approval; the motion passed 7–0. The applicant was advised to attend the Aug. 27 council meeting.
