FILE #LA23-000016 APRIL 17, 2023 Page 2 of 5 rear of the space, the applicant shows four additional striped spaces and 6 spaces that are not striped. These will likely be used by employees and for overflow parking. The business is located within a multi-tenant building with a shared parking lot. The building tenants do not all have the same hours of operation, which allow for additional overflow parking for the restaurant during the dinner hours. Staff finds the amount of parking for the restaurant use sufficient. The Planning Commission should consider the condition to stripe the additional spaces that serve the restaurant use that are not currently striped. Waste Materials (Code Section 78-1578) The City Code allows for garbage to be stored in an enclosed building such as a trash enclosure or contained in a closed container. The applicant has stated that the restaurant use will have their own garbage and recycling dumpsters that will be stored in the same area as other dumpsters serving the multi-tenant building. The applicant has also stated that kitchen grease will be properly disposed of in a separate container. The Planning Commission should confirm that these containers are closed containers in order to meet City Code. The Planning Commission should also discuss the possibility of requiring a trash enclosure should the disposal of garbage become unsightly for the building site.

No exterior or site modifications are proposed. No additional services are required and therefore the criterion is met. 4) Provided with an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system; The applicant will be required to obtain the appropriate building permits for the proposed interior remodel.

This criterion is met. 5) Not expected to generate excessive demand for public services at public cost; The proposed restaurant use is not expected to generate additional public service demand. This criterion is met. 6) Compatible with the surrounding area as the area is used both presently and as it is planned to be used in the future; The proposed restaurant use is compatible with the surrounding area. 2160 Wayzata Boulevard West is a multi-tenant building within the B-1 District with a variety of uses including a gas station, salon, professional offices and more.
