Re: Special Use Permit
We have applied to the city for a special use permit to operate
a small game room within our new Pontillo's Pizzeria location.
Our Bloomington store, located at 9709 Lyndale was the first
location that offered a game room. We decided to try it for
two major reasons. First and most important was to give
customers that are impatiently waiting for food they have ordered,
something to -.do while they are waiting. This mostoften is the
case with 'take out" customers, that idle time passes very
slowly. Furthermore it tends to draw these people away from the
order area, thereby relieving congestion. Secondly,the game
room allows mom and dad a few private minutes while the kids
play the games. Family trade is a strong part of our dinner
business and giving mom and dad a few minutes of time alone has
proven to be a positive attraction.
The game room is provided for paying customers only. The
location of the game room is in full view of our kitchen and
order area, so monitoring of the space is simple. The room will
never bo a hangout.
Tentat-ivd3--y-we,:.are_planning three pinball machinesandfour
video machines. With the sophistication of the v-ideoo games today
they are an attraction to all of our customers.
In summary, I would say that the our
room is a definite benefit
to running our business and to our customers and will have no
negative impact on the community.

Planning Commission Information Sheet
Application No. 81031
Applicant: Pontillo's Pizza
Location: 5937 Summit Drive
Request: Special Use Permit
The applicant requests special use permit approval to operate a recreation room
as an accessory use to the 100 seat restaurant which is the subject of Application
No. 81030. The property in question is zoned C2 and is completely surrounded by
other C2 zoned land.
The recreation room within the restaurant will have seven games altogether, four
video -type and three pinball machines. These games are intended strictly for
the restaurant customers and not as a hangout for youths (see applicant's letter
attached). Since the game room will be close to the kitchen and order area, it
will be easy for restaurant employees to monitor the game room. The purpose of
the game room, again, is to provide something for restaurant customers and/or
their children to do while waiting for a pizza to be served. No other clientele
is being sought and, according to the applicant, will not be tolerated.
Staff are not as concerned about the proposed operation as would be the case if
the recreation room were located near residential property and operated solely
or primarily for a separate game room clientele. In light of the size and nature
of the proposed operation, there appears to be no conflict with the special use
standards. Approval is, therefore, recommended, subject to at least the
following conditions:
1. The special use permit is issued to the applicant as operator of
the facility and is nontransferable.
2. The permit is subject to all applicable codes, ordinances,
regulations, and violation thereof shall be grounds for revocation.
3. House rules, if any, shall be clearly posted in the establishment
and consistently enforced. The applicant shall submit a copy of
any such rules to the Director of Planning and Inspection prior
to the issuance of the special use permit.
