Resolution No. 2025-XX Page 2 of 9 G. The Planning Commission determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant a CUP pursuant to SAMC Section 41-638, have been established for CUP No. 2025-01 to allow the after-hours operations for the drive-through at an existing eating establishment located at 2600 S. Bristol Street. 1. That the proposed use will provide a service or facility, which will contribute to the general wellbeing of the neighborhood or community. The subject site, constructed in 1989, is undergoing an extensive renovation project to enhance its offerings and compete with local businesses. By allowing the business hours for the drive- through to be extended until 1:00 a.m. on Sunday through Thursday and until 1:30 a.m. Friday and Saturday, after the remodeling is completed, the business will be able to offer convenient services to patrons who work late night shifts or early morning commuters. This will thereby benefit the community by providing an eating establishment with an additional and complementary food related amenity as well enhance the city’s economic and fiscal viability. A property maintenance agreement and conditions of approval will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and will ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. 2. That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The proposed after-hours operations will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of those residing or working in the vicinity. Conditions have been placed on the CUP that will mitigate any potential negative impacts to the surrounding community including security cameras, silent armed robbery alarm, and code compliant lighting across the site. Wendy’s is a well-established national store franchise with policies and procedures that include an employee training program focused on security and minimizing calls for service. Additionally, the subject establishment is surrounded by a range of commercial uses to the north, east, & south. The proposed hours of operation are consistent with other similar eating establishments and service stations along S. Bristol Street such as Denny’s at 2530 S. Bristol and Carl’s Jr at 2511 S. Bristol Street. These proposed hours of operation are not anticipated to create any nuisances related to the noise and lighting due to the site’s physical distance away from sensitive land uses. Single-family residential uses lay approximately 250 linear feet to the west; however, they are buffered by an existing comm ercial building and parking area. Additionally, the drive-through speaker boxes face Bristol Street and are located away from residential uses. Further reducing
