A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER APPROVING A RESOLUTION FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR 30 NORTH RESTAURANT AT 30 N. CENTRAL AVENUE

Mayor Sanger opened the Public Hearing and requested proof of publication.

City Manager Owens reported that this is a public hearing to consider an application for a Conditional Use Permit submitted by Brian Ivy, Architect on behalf of Chris Sedlak, business owner, to allow the operation of a 3,578 square-foot, 93-seat restaurant to be known as 30 North (formerly occupied by Jennifer’s Pharmacy).

The applicant describes the intent of the restaurant as “to create a relaxed, intimate setting but still a somewhat social environment for our customers to enjoy good food and drinks.” Proposed hours of operation are 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. seven days a week. The casual restaurant will feature a chef created menu with small plates and a bar. Delivery service from the restaurant is not proposed. Outdoor dining to accommodate 16 patrons will be considered by staff at a later date. A liquor license will be required and considered by the Board of Aldermen at a later date.

Deliveries to the restaurant will be made in the morning to the rear of the building. Trash will be stored in existing dumpsters located in the rear of the building. The applicant intends to participate in a recycling program.

Because the restaurant is greater than 3,000-square-feet, off-street parking must be provided at a rate of three parking spaces for every five seats on a pro-rated percentage for the square footage in excess of 3,000. Eleven parking spaces are required for this restaurant. Five off-street parking spaces are provided on-site, which, according to the applicant/restaurant owner, will be used by employees. The applicant is contracting with Clayton Valet to provide parking valet service to patrons and is requesting a parking waiver for off-street parking requirements.

The Plan Commission considered this request at their meeting of April 17th and voted to recommend approval with the condition that the restaurant owner secure and maintain parking for six vehicles, in addition to the five on-site spaces, pursuant to the City’s parking regulations (valet parking agreement is acceptable) and that written proof be submitted to the City. The Architectural Review, at their meeting of April 17th, voted to approve exterior alterations to the front façade.

Recommendation is to approve a Conditional Use Permit for the operation of 30 North Restaurant at 30 North Central Avenue.

Brian Ivy, architect, representing the owner, Brian Sedlak, addressed the Board stating that the owner has requested to change the name to the restaurant from 30 North to the Pelican Bar.

In response to Alderman Berkowitz’ question, Mr. Ivy confirmed that Brian Sedlak owns the old Barrister’s Restaurant building and that due to trouble with the costs to renovate he ended up not going forward with that project.

In response to Alderman Berkowitz’ question, Mr. Ivy stated that they are hoping to open the restaurant in the fall.

In response to Mayor Sanger’s question, Mr. Ivy said that they will begin construction within the next 30 days.

In response to Alderman Lintz’ question, Mr. Ivy stated that the building currently has two front doors, but after construction renovations there will be only one door.

Mayor Sanger closed the Public Hearing.

Alderman Winings moved to approve Resolution No. 17-08, as amended to change the name to Pelican Bar, granting a Conditional Use Permit for 30 N. Central Avenue. Alderman Boulton seconded.
