An outdoor seating area has been shown on the plans, but is not proposed to be built for some time. The property owner has requested to discuss this as a future option with the Planning Commission and Council. Parking Recently the Council approved plans to install new lights in the Navarre parking lot. Most of the parking for the Narrow ’s Saloon would use the Municipal lot located behind the building. The commercial area around the parking lot is zoned commercial. It is estimated a total of 23,000 s.f. of retail is located within the commercial buildings adjacent to the lot. The City Code requirement for retail and service is one space for 150 s.f. of floor area. The total parking spaces that would be required is 1 54. The parking area contains approximately 90 spaces. The Public Services Director has recently reviewed the parking in the Navarre Lot and stated the parking lot appears to be functioning adequately. It wou'd not be possible to create new parking areas on the private property'. Some limited parking is available along Shoreline Drive. The additional seating may cause added demand for parking around the site. The busiest hours for The Narrow ’s would be evenings on weekends when there would be little demand for parking spaces in the lot. The applicant should comment on parking demand during the lunch hour Monday thru Friday. i^2604 Sorrows Saloon • James AnJerst 33SO Shoreline Drt\e Site Plan Review and Conditional Use Permit Augiisi 21. 2000 pazt~2
