McGrath’s proposes upstairs expansion to 207-person occupancy; special-use hearing set
Summary
Building Department reported McGrath’s plans to expand an upstairs private party room to a 207-person occupancy with 119 seats in the restaurant, raising parking implications and prompting a Special Use permit hearing on August 3, 2026; other permit updates included 7‑11/Sunoco demolition permits and The Saint interior alterations.
Village building officials told trustees that McGrath’s has revised a proposal that would create a private party room upstairs and a total occupancy of 207 people with 119 seats at the restaurant, a change that would create additional parking requirements and requires a Special Use permit; a public hearing is scheduled for August 3, 2026. The file notes that the application appears to have changed during review and that parking impacts are a material consideration in the permit process.
The Building Department also reported a demolition permit issued covering canopy and gas station equipment at the 7‑11 and Sunoco property while store demolition remains pending pending a pending sale to Southland; a permit for interior alterations at The Saint, 195 Main Street, was issued on May 18 with window coverage issues under review. Staff said a backlog of open permits is being addressed and investigations into alleged illegal rentals are underway.
