FROM: Linda Ritter,Associate Planner
RE: Raising Cane Restaurant Drive-Through Establishment(CR-2024-0002)
History: The Planning&Zoning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit(CUP) (H-2024-0021)
for a restaurant with accessory drive-through including indoor/outdoor seating area in the C-G zoning
district on September 5,2024, as set forth in the Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law approved
September 19,2024. The Idaho Transportation Department(ITD) stated trip generation numbers were not
provided for the drive-through establishment with the application and this information is required to
determine what mitigation,if any,may be required. ITD later confirmed no additional mitigation will be
required with this project as a dedicated right in/right out turn lane was previously approved and installed
with the Sessions Parkway Subdivision. (See pictures below)

The property in which the proposed drive-through establishment is requesting a CUP for a drive-through
that is within 300 feet of another drive-through has a development agreement that allows certain things to
happen on this site as part of the Sessions Parkway Subdivision. Sessions Park Subdivision was approved
with anticipated uses such as a drive-through. Therefore,this property is well into the entitlement process.
There were no written comments received for this application; however, several people spoke in
opposition of the proposed drive-through establishment stating it would create safety issues along Eagle
Road. The applicant stated during high use hours they will have the employees with the tablets walking,
moving traffic along very quickly and efficiently. The proposal has multiple drive-through lanes open to
help speed up the ordering process. The applicant also stated, if needed Raising Cain does employ off-
duty officers who are used for traffic control, although they do not anticipate that with this location. But,
yes,they do try and move everyone through efficiently and keep things from being clogged.
Request: The Applicant has submitted a request for City Council review of the Commission's decision in
this matter and reconsider the approval.
