Proposed improvements for 2377 Shadywood Road Orono.MN This property is cunently zoned B-1. Our plan is to open a cofTee-sbop/Bakery/restaurant with a drivc-up window. We need a CUP to do this. 1. Remove all overgrown shrubs in the front of the property. Replace these with smaller bushes and some larger shade trees in the front center yard. Add on a 20 X 32.3 addition to the rear of the structure. This area will be the kitchen and entry to the restaurant. The existin^g ' ving room will be the dining area with access to the outside deck. Ihe existing kitchen will be part of the new kitchen. Remove the three season porch and Ihe shed from the north side of the structure. The current setback is 16.9*. By removing these two areas, we increase the setback to 26.7*. We will sdll need a variance since we understand the side yard setback is 35*. Add on a 12* X 24.9* dMk to the south side of the structure for outdoor dining in nice weather. Enlarge existing rest room to conform to handicap access. Add a drive up window to rear of building. Currently there are three paraDel parking spaces in the rear. We would increase this to four spaces and they would face inward. We would also utilize the rear municipal parking ^ adjaccm to the property. We have already been assessed for this parking lot. Add plantings and shrubs around die parking area and drive-up area to separate them. Plant flowers and shrubs around entire lot to increase the curb appeal. 2. 3. 5. 6. 7. 8 After running a coffee shop in Long Lake for 6 years, (Lake Country Coffee), and one in Mound for 19 years, 1 can honestly say we have the experience to do this right. We are excited to bring a new business to Orono and know that many of our customers in Mound and Long Lake will follow us there. We need the drive-up to make this successful. V 'O
