MINUTES OF THE ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING Monday, September 12, 2016 7:00 o'clock p.m. 13. ##16-3856 SARYAN CUISINE DEVELOPMENT, LLC, ON BEHALF OF PAUL AGRE COMPANY, 2380 SHADYWOOD ROAD, CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (continued) Walsh stated he would be open to that in the future. Walsh commented Wayzata has a number of restaurants for lunch that offer appetizers and drinks, which makes it more of a destination spot for groups of people. Walsh noted the City is working hard to make Navarre a good destination place and that a beer and wine license would help to make this more of a destination place. Levang asked if there needs to be two entrances for patrons into the building in regards to fire safety. Barnhart stated the building code does dictate certain access and egress requirements, which will have to be met. Barnhart noted the building permit review is not done at this stage but that those regulations would apply in this case. Levang noted the menu states that evening hours would be Thursday to Sunday only. Fridley stated that would be a different type of service on those evenings but that many of those meals would be available every evening, Fridley stated during the week patrons would walk in, place their order, and the food is brought to the table. Thursday through Sunday is more formal dining where the orders are taken from the table. Levang asked if the applicant is asking that the facility would be open every evening until 10 p.m. Fridley indicated weekday evenings would be 9 p.m. and then 10 p.m. on the weekends. Levang asked if the Council can put restrictions on those hours. Barnhart stated the Council can if there is a particular concern. Staff recommended 10 p.m. to limit impacts to the neighbors and that coffee/bagel retail stores are typically not open 24/7. Walsh commented some people don't go out to eat until 8 p.m. and that they probably would not be leaving until after 9 p.m. Walsh stated 10 p.m. seems like a pretty reasonable hour. McMilIan asked if he is okay with the proposed resolution. Fridley indicated they are. McMillan asked if they are okay with the 10 p.m, closing time and the no liquor license. Fridley indicated they are. Walsh stated he is not in favor of No. 3, which prohibits the liquor license. Walsh stated if the applicant wants to come back and request a liquor license, it would need to be amended. Fridley stated if they decide to request a liquor license, they would seek an amendment of the conditional use permit and whatever other modifications might be necessary. McMillan asked whether anyone from the public would like to comment on this application. Page 9 of 34
