MINUTES OF THE <br />ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />Tuesday, February 16, 2021 <br />6:00 o’clock p.m. <br />__________________________________________________________________________________ <br />capacity for cooking. Right now, in the existing space they only have 450 square feet and one pizza oven, <br />which is not adequate for purposes right now during peak time, so they would like to add an additional <br />pizza oven, and some additional cooler space. <br /> <br />Libby asked Mr. Fischer if they are required to have any additional Department of Health licensing to <br />prep the dough and do that on site or are they getting it from a third-party vendor. <br /> <br />Mr. Fischer replied currently their dough is made off-site. Another reason they want to do this is that they <br />would have a significant cost savings by making the dough in-house. Any construction done in the new <br />space would be done under the guidelines of the Hennepin County Health Department; they have walked <br />through the space and have their construction health guidelines that the new space would be inspected for. <br />Mr. Fischer said they would follow all health department guidelines and would be inspected before they <br />would start producing dough on that side. <br /> <br />Ressler opened the public hearing at 7:42 p.m. <br /> <br />Ressler closed the public hearing at 7:42 p.m. <br /> <br />Ressler asked if anyone has problems with this plan. <br /> <br />Bollis likes it; he only brought up the parking because it was in the staff report. He feels like in looking at <br />the new addition piece as retail, it falls under a different parking code requirement and it is actually less. <br />He thinks the 5 spaces actually is conforming 100% with what they are asking for and he likes everything <br />about it. <br /> <br />Ressler said furthermore it is mitigated by having some public parking that seems to be well supporting <br />the space that exists. It has been a successful business from everything he has observed and the space that <br />is existing there makes it difficult to grow and sustain as that is how restaurants survive. He loves it, <br />thinks it is great, and said they are always trying to create more vitality for that area. <br /> <br />McCutcheon moved, Libby seconded, to approve LA21-000011 Jason Fischer And Kara <br />Honebrink, (3416) 3420 Shoreline Drive, Conditional Use Permit. VOTE: Ayes 7, Nays 0. <br />
