PLANNING COMMISSION ITEMS
PLANNING COMMISSIONN APPLICATION NO. 83022 SUBMITTED BY GROUND ROUND FOR SITE.AND
BUILDING PLAN APPTRUV L T�TRUCT A SMALL ADDITION TO THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF THE,
GROUND RGUMI—TMOTAUMT AT 2545, CbUNT- Y F 07M 1 U_
The Director of Planning & Inspection presented and reviewed for Council members
pages one and two of the June 16, 1983 Planning Commission meeting minutes, and also
the Planning Commission information sheet -prepared for Application No,. 83022. He
proceeded to review the site plan of the proposed addition and noted that the concern
of the staff, with regard to the application, is with the expansion and the effect it
may have on the food and liquor ratio requirements of the City's liquor. ordinance.
He explained that the receipts for food and liquor have run about 56% to 58% for food
to 42% to 44% for liquor over the last three years. -
The Director of Planning & Inspection explained that the applicant has submitted a
revised floor plan showing 150 seats in the dining area. He noted that 150 dining
area is the minimum amount .of seating required under the City's liquor ordinance.
The Director of Planning & Inspection explained that the Planning Commission
recommended approval of Application No. 83022 subject to three conditions which he
reviewed for Council members.
Mayor Nyquist expressed a concern over the food and liquor ratio and raised a
question with regard to what is'being done to enhance the food sales. He noted that
the application appears to focus on the enhancement of liquor sales. Mayor Nyquist
stated that he would like to go on record by advising the applicant, if the items
comprehended in this application cause the operation to go below the required ratio
of food and liquor sales, that perhaps the applicant should consider this aspect of
the application. He added that if the applicant dropped below the required food and.
liquor sales ratio, the ordinance on the books should be enforced.
The Director of Planning & Inspection reviewed the revised floor plan for Council
members.
6-27-83 -4
Mayor Nyquist inquired whether the applicant wished to add anything with regard to
l the application.
Mr, Walter Francois, representing the applicant, Howard Johnson's stated that he
would like to address Mayor Nyquist's concern with regard to the application. Mr.
Francois stated that approximately 11% of the sales counted as liquor sales were
actually soft drink sales. He pointed out that their accounting system did not
differentiate between the liquor and soft drink sales. He explained that there has
never been a problem in other communities with regard to similar requirements for a
food and liquor ratio. Mr. Francois stated that, if the ratio became aproblem, the
applicant would separate the soft drink sales from the liquor sales. Mr. Francois
commented on the required parking and stated that the 212 common parking stalls had
been reduced to 192 because concrete islands -were constructed. The Director of
Planning &; Inspection commented that the parking in the area allows the Ground Round
to meet it's parking requirements as well as the Plitt Theatre. He noted that the
parking stalls are shared by the two businesses. ' He added that he is not disputing
Mr. Francois' assertion.
Mr. Francois stated that the seating' arrangements shown on the floor plan is
intended to show a pictoral presentation of seating requirements. He noted that,
most of the time some of the tables are joined together, and that the floor plan only
shows a. representation of the total number of 'seats and not necessarily the
configuration of the seating. He added that, by changing the seating configuration
and joining tables together, the floor space can be increased while still
maintaining 151 dining seats with no more than 85 lounge seats: He added that this
could be accomplished while maintaining the required aisle space. Mr. Francois
stated that he would submit to the Council categorically that the 151 dining room
seats would be maintained with no more than 85 lounge seats.
Mr. Francois stated that the Ground Round Restaurants are undergoing a concept
change and that they are adding a sunroom to lighten up the interior atmosphere of
the restaurant. He explained that the menus would also be changed and that the
dining room would be lightened up, including the floors and wood interior. He noted
that the stained glass windows would also be removed.to lighten up the interior
atmosphere.
At the request of Councilmember Theis, the applicant explained the Ground RounddIs
accounting system whereby soft drink sales are included in with liquor sales.
There was a motion by Councilmember I,hotka and seconded by Councilmember Scott to
approve Application No. 83022 subject to the following conditions:.
1. Building plans are subject to review -and approval by the.
Building Official with respect to applicable codes, prior
to the issuance of permits.
2, Seating in the dining room shall be no less than 150 arid.
the seating capacity in the lounge shall not exceed 87.
3• The addition shall be equipped with an automatic fire
extinguishing system to meet NFPA standards and connected
to a central monitoring device in accordance with Chapter
5 of the City Ordinances.

Planning Commission Information Sheet
Application No. 83022
Applicant: Hammill-Mc Kinney
Location: 2545 County Road
Request: Site and Building
Architects/Ground Round
10
Plan
The applicant requests site and building plan approval to construct an addition to
the lounge at the Ground Round Restaurant at 2545 County Road 10. The restaurant
property is zoned C2 and is bounded on the north by County Road 10, on the east
by a joint parking lot shared with the Plitt Theatre, on the south by Dayton's
Garden Center, and on the west by Brookdale ( specifically a private road extension
of Shingle Creek Parkway) . The restaurant is a permitted use in the C2 zone.
The proposed expansion is to the southwest corner of the building and will add very
little in the way of total seating. However, the expansion will allow a proposed in-
crease in lounge seats from 73 to 89 while restaurant seating is to decline from 143
to 131. The Ground Round site holds 55 parking stalls and there is an easement for
71 additional stalls on the adjacent parcel to ' the east, for a total of 126 stalls. The
original approval comprehended 237 seats and 15 employees which fit within the
parking requirement of one space for every two seats plus one space for every two
employees on the maximum shift. The original 237 seats were divided 149 in the
restaurant and 88 in the lounge. Since then, the Ground Round replaced some seats
in the lounge with video games and a large screen T. V . and have simply thinned out
the seats in the restaurant.
The proposal for a total of 220 seats is certainly within the parking capacity of the
restaurant. Therefore, from a zoning perspective, there is no problem with the
proposed addition. The concern we have is over compliance with the City's Liquor
Ordinance. The City Liquor Ordinance requires that establishments serving in-
toxicating liquors have at least 150 dining seats and that the majority of operating
revenues come from the sale of food (ie . over 50 0) . The Ground Round does serve
food in the lounge, but certainly the main function of the lounge is as a drinking
area. The receipts for food and liquor have run about 56% to 58% for food to 42%
to 44 o for liquor over the last three years. Staff are concerned that the increase
in lounge seating, coupled with a decrease in restaurant seating, will perhaps put
the food/liquor ratio below the ordinance requirement. We would, therefore, recom-
mend that restaurant seating be at 150 seats and the lounge seating capacity limited
to 87 which would be the maximum permitted by the available parking.
The proposed addition involves no
changes to the
site plan
or the grading, landscaping
and utility plans. The building exterior
will, of course, be
compatible with the exist- "
ing building. There will be more
windows in the
addition,
as it is intended to be a
sun room. New windows will also
be installed on
the north
and south elevations to
allow more natural light into both
the lounge and
the restaurant.
Altm;gether tYte plans appear to be in order and approval is recommended, subject to
the following conditions:
1. Building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building
Official with respect to applicable codes, prior to the issuance of
permits.
2. Seating in the dining room shall be no less than 150 and the seating
capacity in the lounge shall not exceed 87.
3. The addition shall be equipped with an automatic fire extinguishing
system to meet NFPA standards and connected to a central monitoring
device in accordance with Chapter 5 of the City Ordinances.
