View this case on Richardson Zoning Watch (map, hearing notices, CPC status) →
What this is
A property owner is asking to amend the West Spring Valley Planned Development and get a special permit to build a 2,800-square-foot restaurant with a drive-through on about 5.1 acres on the west side of S. Central Expressway, between S. Floyd Road and James Drive.
Why it matters
Approval would allow a new drive-through restaurant in this corridor, changing what is permitted on the roughly 5-acre site.
Council action
Motion to approve the request with the stipulation that the biergarten be constructed within 24 months of approval or the applicant will lose the option of the menu board, the submitted site plan is accepted with administrative approval, and the enumeration of the special events is eliminated
Seconded by Joe Corcoran.
