Draft Conditional Use Ordinance (see attached) BACKGROUND An application has been filed by Robert Szymczak requesting a conditional use for a carry out restaurant and tobacco store in a CC1 Center City District. The subject property is located at 221 East Chicago Street (reference Exhibits A, B, C and D). The subject property is located within the CC1 Center City District. The subject property is also located with the CCP Center City Preservation District. This interim zoning overlay designation was approved in April 2000 to allow the City Council to individually review and consider proposals which may be inconsistent with the goals and policies of the Center City/Riverfront Plan. Several permitted uses within the CC 1 Center City District zoning classification were added to an expanded conditional use list to enable the Council to"condition"their approval based on acceptable operational,aesthetic, and design characteristics. Carry out restaurants and tobacco stores were origjnally included in the permitted use list of the CC 1 Center City District and were added to the expanded conditional use list in the Center City Preservation overlay zoning district. The applicant proposes to move his existing carry out restaurant and tobacco store, known as the Downtown Deli, from 165 East Chicago Street to 221 East Chicago Street. Accordingly, the applicant is requesting a conditional use to allow for the relocation of his business from one site to another within the CC 1 Center City District. The property located at 221 East Chicago Street is improved with a three story brick commercial structure. The property has been occupied by Carlson's Art Supply store, and, most recently,by a billiard hall. The applicant is proposing to relocate his existing carry out restaurant and tobacco store currently located at 165 East Chicago Street to expand into a 5500 square feet space at 221 East Chicago Street. The new location will allow for the expansion of both the carry out restaurant and the tobacco and magazine sales area. The applicant also proposes to add tables for sit down dining, a soda fountain and a cigar humidor to the new location(reference Exhibits E and F). -2- Findings of Fact Zoning and Subdivision Hearing Board Petition 61-00 October 18, 2000 GENERAL FINDINGS After due notice,as required by law,the Zoning and Subdivision Hearing Board held a public hearing in consideration of Petition 61-00 on October 18, 2000.
