3. The Council reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of the proposed conditional use (CU-06-
13) in terms of Eagle City Code Section 8-7-3-2, "General Standards For Conditional Uses" and has
concluded that the proposed conditional uses:
A. Will, in fact, constitute a conditional use as established in Section 8-2-3 of this title (Eagle
City Code Title 8) since a restaurant with drive-thru may be permitted in the C-3 (Highway
Business District) zoning district if a conditional use permit is approved by the City Council;
B. Will be harmonious with and in accordance with the general objectives or with any specific
objective of the Comprehensive Plan and/or this title (Eagle City Code Title 8), since there are
no inconsistencies with the Comprehensive Plan and since a restaurant with drive-thru is
permitted with the approval of a conditional use within the C-3 (Highway Business District)
zoning district and the Comprehensive Plan designates this site as Commercial;
C. Will be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be harmonious and appropriate in
appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and that such use
will not change the essential character of the same area since the restaurant with drive-thru is
10
Page 10 of 11
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\CU\2013\CU-06-13 Eagle River cadoc
located within a commercial development and the design of the proposed structure must meet
the City's design review requirements;
D. Will not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighborhood uses since the
restaurant with drive-thru is to be located within a commercial development that currently has
compatible commercial uses;
E. Will be served adequately by essential public facilities such as highways, streets, police and
fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water and sewer and schools; or that the
persons or agencies responsible for the establishment of the proposed use shall be able to
provide adequately any such services, as noted in the documentation provided from said
agencies and as required as a part of the conditions of approval;
F. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and
services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community since the site
has been improved with essential public facilities such as streets, sewer and water services;
G. Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation
that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive
production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors since the drive-thru lane will be
placed on the west side of the building with landscape buffers along Eagle Road and reduces
any potential vehicle headlight glare on the public roads;
H. Will have vehicular approaches to the property which are designed as not to create an
interference with traffic on surrounding public thoroughfares since the site will take access
from existing public roadways and cross-access agreements; and
I. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of
major importance, since none are apparent on this site.
4. Pursuant to Eagle City Code 8-7-3-5 (F), a conditional use permit shall not be considered as
establishing a binding precedent to grant other conditional use permits.
