Commission Meeting
th
Clerk – Please note the Applicant’s request for continuance to the April 15 Commission meeting below due to not
posting the public hearing notice sign within the required timeframe in UDC 11-5A-6.
Mark – UDC Table 11-2B-2, Allowed Uses in Commercial Districts, lists drive-through establishments as “A/C” (accessory
use/conditional use) with a reference to the specific use standards listed in UDC 11-4-3-11 for Drive-Through
Establishments. A drive-through is only an accessory use where none of the provisions noted in 11-4-3-11A apply. In this
case, the use is within 300’ of a residential district & residential use; therefore, a CUP is required. The sign posting
requirements in UDC 11-5A-6 state an 18” x 24” sign may be posted for a CUP for a group daycare only, all others must
be posted with a 4’ x 4’ sign meeting the requirements in UDC 11-5A-6D.2b. There’s no provision for a code waiver or
change in this situation, I’m sorry.

Sonya,
I confirmed, the owner did not post public hearing notice signage. See attached for the request for continuance.

The 4x4 sign seems excessive (and expensive) for this project for menu and food pickup windows as previously
discussed. The highlighted code section below appears to be viable to conditional use, and if it’s not, it’s quite
misleading.
Let me know if you’d agree to an 18x24 sign instead, thank you.

No, it’s a conditional use, not accessory.

Sonya,
Per code section (11-5A-6) below:
a. Conditional use permit applications for daycare, group; city council review of accessory uses in residential
districts; and annexation, preliminary plat, variance, rezone, and comprehensive plan amendment applications
for properties of land less than two (2) acres in size: The applicant shall post a sign consisting of one (1) 18-inch
by 24-inch piece of paper mounted to a rigid surface of at least equal size, or other material stating the name of
the applicant, a statement concerning the proposed development, and the date, time and location of the public
hearing.
Can we do a 18x24 sign in lieu of a 4x4 sign as the new proposed drive-through is accessory use adjacent to a residential
district (per UDC 11-4-3-11)?
Let me know, thanks.
