Item 7:
Continued Public Hearing from February 17, 2005: CUP 04-056
Request for a Conditional Use Permit for two separate drive-up windows
in a C-C zone for Jade Plaza by Sundance Investments, LLP - 3679 East
Overland Road:
Zaremba: I'd like to open the Public Hearing for Item 7. This is CUP 04-056, a
continued Public Hearing from February 17th, a request for a Conditional Use Permit for
two separate drive-up windows in a C-C zone for Jade Plaza by Sundance Investments,
LLP, 3679 East Overland Road and, like the previous issues, when it came up for
hearing on February 17th, the applicant had requested a delay, which we did until
tonight. So, once again, there was no testimony and we are beginning. Nobody's
missed anything. We will begin with the staff report.
Guenther: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I thought it wasn't on. This is a request for one
drive-thru window. The request for two was -- the reason for the delay was for the
redraw of this site. This is in Silverstone Business Campus. It is a principally permitted
use for a restaurant, but all drive-up windows require a Conditional Use Permit to be
heard. The site is right off of Overland Road and the existing landscaping along
Silverstone Way, Overland Road, and Jade Road -- or Jade Avenue on this site, is all
existing. The only thing that is being approved tonight would be internal landscaping
that we have reviewed and it would comply with our landscape ordinance. It's difficult to
see, but the portion right down in here, this is a separate parcel that will be coming
through for future uses, most likely through a CZC or it was part of a one-time division
that occurred on this property, which was a portion of the certificate of zoning
compliance that is in progress as well on the site, and in order to be -- try and be quick
here, this is a fairly straight forward standard condition of approval for this type of a use
and if you have any questions I will answer them. Staff is recommending approval.
Zaremba: Commissioners, any questions?
Moe: No, sir.
Borup: None.
Zaremba: Okay. Would the applicantlike to speak, please?
Larsen: Chairman Zaremba, Members of the Planning and Zoning Commission, my
name is Cornell Larsen and I'm here tonight representing Sundance Investments. My
address is 210 Murray in Garden City. We are in concurrence with the staff report's
conditions of approval and I would be happy to discuss any issues on the project that
you might have. I really don't have any comments on it. And I would like to take a
minute after you have had discussions or questions and speak in favor of the project
following mine on Item No.8.
Zaremba: Any question?

Borup: I don't have any questions. This is another project in the business park and --
Zaremba: He's only here because of the drive-up window.
Borup: Right.
Zaremba: I see no -- it's not near any residences or anything.
Newton-Huckabay: What's the restaurant?
Larsen: One of them is a Chinese food restaurant and the other one is a sandwich
facility. There will be one on the -- better get my directions straight. The south end --
that goes from the south end up to the north end and, then, there will be another one
over in the corner that would be a drive-in sandwich facility.
Moe: I guess the only other thing I would say is that I like this plan much more than the
-- the previous one that we did see --
Larsen: Thank you.
Moe: -- with the second drive-thru.
Zaremba: All right. Well, thank you. We will invite you back up in a minute, but in the
meantime --
Larsen: Thank you.
Zaremba: -- I think -- is there anybody in the audience that wishes to speak on this
subject? We do have a sign-up sheet that has no one signed up, but this would be an
opportunity if you have an opinion. Okay. Hearing none --
Moe: Mr. Chairman?
Zaremba: Commissioner Moe.
Moe: I move that we close the Public Hearing for CUP 04-056.
Zaremba: One moment. Let me ask Mr. Larsen a question. You said you wanted to
make further comments about the next item. Did you want to make that during this item
or do you want --
Larsen: That would be fine.
Zaremba: Or did you just want to be invited back?

Larsen: Either way. The next item is one that's out in Silverstone as well and since I
have been involved in that project for some time, I just wanted to say that the next item
would be a very nice-looking building and I hope you will approve that as well.
Nary: Mr, Chairman?
Zaremba: I think the record has to match the item that we are talking about, so --
Larsen: Okay. I will come back.
Zaremba: I'll invite you back to speak on that one. Thank you.
Larsen: Thank you.
Zaremba: Mr. Moe, proceed with --
Moe: I just made a motion to --
Rohm: Second.
Zaremba: All in favor say aye. Anyopposed? The Public Hearing is closed.
MOTION CARRIED: ALL AYES.
