C
Real
quick
once
upon
a
time
there
was
a
very
wealthy
man
who
was
upset
at
the
way
people
were
treating
each
other
and
went
to
the
road
and
he
lifted
up
a
rock
and
he
put
a
bag
of
gold
under
it
and
left
the
rock
in
the
middle
of
the
road
one
traveler
walked
down
said.
This
is
ridiculous:
I
have
to
go
around
this
rock.
Why
should
I
have
to
do
this
when
he
did
some?
The
second
traveler
came
down
the
road
and
said
this
stupid
rock
is
in
the
road.
C
They
should
do
something
about
this
later
on.
In
the
evening,
a
young
man
was
returning
back
from
his
shepherding
Duty
and
he
saw
the
rock
in
the
road,
and
he
said
this
is
dangerous.
We
moved
the
Rock
and
found
a
bag
of
gold,
and
the
point
is:
is
that
this
board's
point?
The
importance
of
this
board
is
not
to
complain,
but
to
correct.
C
D
B
E
B
Thank
you.
Do
we
have
any
comments
from
staff
announcements,
no
announcements
great.
There
are
two
items
on
tonight's
agenda.
Now
is
the
time
to
place
for
the
first
public
hearing
item
on
Project
number
22-0004082
and
conditional
use
permit
to
allow
the
incidental
sale
of
beer
and
wine
and
distilled
Spirits
for
an
on-site
consumption
at
the
existing
restaurant,
the
young
fella
located
on
Riverside
Drive
4007.
Before
we
begin
do
any
planning
board
members
have
any
Legal,
Financial
or
other
conflict
of
interest
regarding
this
hearing?
No,
no!
No!
No!
No!

Good
evening,
chair
Rosati
and
members
of
the
commission,
my
name
is
Fatima
Benitez
assistant
planner,
with
a
Community
Development
Department
planning
division
for
a
consideration.
Tonight
is
Project
number
220004082.
A
conditional
use,
permit
request
for
an
alcohol
license
to
sell
beer
wine
and
distilled
Spirits
for
an
existing
restaurant.
The
young
fella
located
at
4007
Riverside
Drive.
The
project
representative,
is
Veronica
Becerra
on
behalf
of
the
restaurant
owner,
Bahar
parsbar.
F
F
F
Shown
here
has
an
existing
site
plan
of
the
project
site.
The
building
includes
two
tenant
spaces
and
both
are
restaurants,
the
young
fella
and
Lou,
the
French
on
the
Block.
The
main
entrance
is
facing
Riverside
Drive,
where
the
blue
arrow
is
pointing
the
yellow
line,
depicts
the
property
lines.
The
project
site
has
one
standard
parking
space
and
188
compliance
space,
totaling,
two
on-site
parking
spaces
for
this
establishment.
F
This
slide
provides
an
overview
of
the
proposed
floor
plan.
The
entrance
to
the
restaurant
is
fronting
Riverside
Drive
and
is
indicated
by
Red
Arrow,
as
shown
on
the
slide.
The
dining
area
and
service
area
where
the
food
and
alcohol
would
be
served.
As
indicated
in
yellow
the
kitchen
area
is
shown
in
Orange
and
the
office
and
storage
area
is
shown
in
pink.
The
applicant
is
proposing
minor
alterations
to
the
interior
to
add
one
restroom,
which
is
outlined
in
green.
F
The
total
area
devoted
towards
storage
of
alcohol
is
19.66
square
feet
of
the
overall
1475
square
foot
tenant
space,
which
is
below
the
maximum
15
percent
allowed.
No
other
changes
are
being
proposed
or
permitted
shown
here
are
two
photos
showing
the
front
entrance
of
the
existing
restaurant
and
the
existing
two
parking
spaces
located
towards
the
rear.
As
mentioned
before,
the
existing
restaurant
has
an
existing
outdoor
patio
area
within
the
public
right-of-way.
F
The
cep
request
is
compatible
to
the
existing
neighborhood
character
into
the
other
surrounding
commercial
uses,
which
are
made
up
of
restaurant
and
various
retail
uses.
The
alcohol
cell
would
be
incidental
to
the
primary
restaurant.
You
use
the
application
proposed
only
minor
interior
alteration
and
no
external
improvements
to
the
building
or
Surface
parking
lot.
F
The
project
is
I'm,
sorry,
yes,
the
project
is
improved
with
the
restaurant
news
that
serves
a
neighborhood
residential
uses
located
towards
south
and
east
of
Riverside
Drive
and
non-residential
uses,
including
media
related
office,
use
towards
the
north
of
the
project
site.
That
is
consistent
with
landives
element
goal.
1
policy
1.1
to
accommodate
a
mix
of
residential
and
non-residential
land
uses
in
appropriate
locations.
F
The
existing
years
on
the
project
side
and
the
proposed
request
for
ancillary
alcohol
cells
will
support
the
goals
of
underlying
media
District.
General
media
District
commercial
General
plan
land
use,
designation,
consistent
with
land
use
element
goal,
1
policy,
1.8
Additionally.
The
proposed
request
would
enable
the
existing
restaurant
to
remain
competitive
and
maintain
its
economic
liability
by
enhancing
the
service
it
provides
to
the
surrounding
Community,
thereby
preserving
existing
mom-and-pop
business
in
the
neighborhood
consistent
with
land
use
element
goal
6
policy
6.4.
F
In
order
to
address
any
potential
negative
impacts,
staff
Incorporated
several
conditions
of
approval
into
the
resolution,
the
existing
hours
of
operation
are
from
Monday
through
Sunday
11
A.M
to
10
pm.
The
applicant
is
proposing
to
extend
the
hours
of
operation
from
Monday
through
Sunday
from
11AM
to
12
a.m
or
midnight.
F
However,
in
order
to
be
consistent
with
the
neighboring
restaurant
uses
and
due
to
proximity
to
residential
neighborhood
staff
recommended
to
limit
the
hours
of
operation
until
midnight,
which
is
what
is
being
proposed
tonight,
a
condition
of
approval
has
been
placed
to
limit
the
hours
of
operation
from
11AM
to
12
p.m.
Am
midnight
Monday
through
Sunday,
and
the
last
call
for
alcohol
sales
within
the
outdoor
patio
will
be
at
9,
30
pm
and
11
30
PM
inside
the
restaurant.
F
In
addition,
conditions
have
in
place
to
ensure
that
at
least
65
percent
of
the
grow
cells,
revenue
of
establishment
must
be
from
food
cells.
No
more
than
15
percent
of
the
gross
floor
area
be
devoted
primarily
to
the
cell
or
consumption
of
alcohol
and
limiting
alcohol
cells
during
the
same
business
hours
when
food
is
being
sold
further,
no
bar
area
is
being
proposed.
B
H
Thank
you
very
much.
My
name
is
Veronica
Becerra
and
thank
you
Fatima.
That
was
a
excellent
presentation
for
this
project.
The
applicant
has
been
at
this
location
for
several
years
and
has
managed
somehow
to
get
through
covid,
but
she's
seen
a
change
in
the
neighborhood,
where
there's
less
lunch
crowd
and
more
dinner
crowd,
so
she'd
like
to
be
able
to
provide
a
dinner
menu.
That
is
a
little
bit
more
elaborate
than
what
she's
had
in
the
past
and
with
that
also
offer
sort
of
specialty
alcohol
drinks.
H
H
I
B
I
am
okay.
Thank
you
so
much.
We
will
now
open
up
the
the
meeting
to
hear

any
persons
who
wish

this
matter.

to
comment
in

Please
present
a

to
the
planning

So
forgive
me
guys,
my
name
is
Kyle
and
it's
pleasure
to
be
here:
commission,
Planning,
Commission,
so
I'm
not
sure
if
I'm
supposed
to
directly
comment

that
planning
deal,
but
I
just
want
to
introduce
myself
I
applied

open
vacancies
and
so

Just
it's
just
purely
an
introduction
to

hello,
and

That's
it!
Okay!.
B
G
B
J
Okay,
well,
forgive
me
guys
so
once
again,
my
name
is
Kyle.
I
live
at
2720
West,
Victory
Boulevard,
getting
ready
to
move
under
the
underpass
of
the
five
over
by
the
Tommy's
Burger,
so
I'm
excited
to
do
that.
I've
been
living
in
Burbank
for
two
and
a
half
years
and
I,
don't
see
myself
going
anywhere
anytime
soon
and
I
want
to
get
more
involved
with
the
community,
so
I've
applied
to
the
goals
committee,
also
the
parks
and
rec,
and
then
yeah
planning
committee.

Great,
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
coming.
Moving
on
to
item
number
two.
Now
is
the
time
and
place
for
the
second
public
hearing
item,
which
is
continuation
of
the
April
10
2023
public
hearing
project
number
23-0001387
for
proposed
Zone
text
Amendment
to
the
city's
zoning
regulation
to
Burbank
municipal
code
1-502.
B
10-1-101609
related
to
The
Zone
regulations
for
the
conversion
of
existing
businesses
with
drive-throughs
the
Bro,
the
prohibition
of
residentially
adjacent
restaurants,
with
drive-throughs
requirement
of
conditional
use
permit
to
operate
and
establishment
with
a
drive-through
change,
the
minimum
stacking
distance
requirements
and
establishment
of
hours
of
operation.
Before
we
begin
do
any
planning
board
members
have
any
Legal,
Financial
or
other
conflict
of
interest
relating
to
this
hearing.
L
K
B
C
L
B
G
We
have
not
received
any
written
Communications,
then
just
to
clarify
the
noticing,
so
it
was
posted
on
the
agenda
as
required
under
the
law.
But
remember
this
was
a
continued
item
from
date
specific
to
tonight,
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
the
public
wasn't
expecting
a
whole
new
noticing
requirement,
as
part
of
that
which
is
not
required.
M
M
Staff
consulted
The,
Economic,
Development
Division
of
the
Community
Development
Department,
and
found
that
drive
through
business
can
be
desirable.
Development
opportunities
for
property
owners
staff
also
found
that
drive-through
business
may
have
a
positive
impact
on
the
local
economy
because
they
provide
no
contact
Services,
which
have
become
extreme
increasingly
popular
since
the
start
of
the
covid
pandemic.
In
addition,
existing
businesses
or
new
business
developments
of
this
type
that
include
new
construction
or
tenant
improvement
work
can
add
to
New
City
revenues
in
the
form
of
building
permits,
sales,
tax
and
property
tax
for
upgraded
facilities
and
lots.
M
It
is
important
to
note
that
staff's
research
also
revealed
other
emerging
Trends
in
the
restaurant
industry,
such
as
mobile
ordering
Solutions,
which
allow
patrons
to
order
food
off-site
from
their
mobile
phone
and
pick
up
that
food
at
a
designated
time
without
having
to
wait
in
a
drive-through
queuing
Lane.
These
Innovations
have
have
the
potential
to
compete
because
they
would
require
less
wait
time
for
the
patron
and
may
require
a
smaller
footprint
for
the
restaurant.
M
M
Based
on
Council
feedback,
Community
input
and
concerns
and
staff
research
staff
recommends
that
several
modifications
to
the
Burbank
Municipal
Code
be
made.
A
complete
exhibit
of
the
proposed
changes
to
the
existing
ordinance
are
included,
as
exhibit
B
to
the
staff
report.
Staff
recommends
modifying
the
use
table
to
indicate
that
residentially
adjacent
restaurants
with
drive-through
uses
are
prohibited.
M
M
Additionally,
staff
recommends
modifying
the
use
table
to
clarify
the
drive-through
establishments
are
permitted
only
with
approval
of
a
cup
in
designated
zones.
The
inclusion
of
this
modification
will
ensure
that
drive-through
establishments
exclusive
of
restaurants
would
drive
through
are
subject
to
discretionary
approval
as
well.
M
Staff
proposes
replacement
taxes
seen
on
this,
and
the
following.
Slides
staff
proposes
that
residentially
adjacent
restaurants
with
drive-throughs
are
prohibited
and
that
any
legal,
non-conforming
drive-through
establishment
that
ceases
operation
for
any
reason
for
a
period
of
90
days
is
subject
to
the
section
10-1-1809.3
and
1809.4,
which
cover
non-conforming
land
and
uses.
M
Staff
proposes
a
minimum
300
foot
queuing
Lane
that
is
separate
from
the
circulation
routes
and
aisles
necessary
to
access
and
exit
the
site.
An
applicant
can
request
the
director
consider
the
reduction
to
the
recuing
Lane
with
the
submission
of
the
queuing
lane
analysis.
However,
the
reduction
can
be
no
less
than
220
feet.
M
Staff
proposes
that
hours
of
operation
are
limited
to
6
a.m,
to
10
pm,
unless
otherwise
approved
as
part
of
a
cup.
Finally,
staff
proposes
that
every
project
is
subject
to
the
underlying
development
standards
applicable
to
the
proposed
use
contained
in
articles
11
through
16.
with
the
proposed
amendments.
Staff
believes
this
zoning
text.
Amendment
will
support
the
vision
of
single-family
and
multiple
family
residential
zones,
as
well
as
commercial
corridors
throughout
the
City
by
ensuring
their
character
is
protected
and
maintained
with
the
requirement
of
cup
approval.
M
B
We
will
now
open
the
meeting
to
hear
from
any
person
who
wish
to
speak
on
this
matter.
Each
person
may
address
the
planning
board
for
a
maximum
time
of
three
minutes
for
members
of
the
public
who
wish
to
speak
on
this
comment
on
this
wish
to
speak
in
person.
May
please
present
the
completed
speaker
card
to
the
planning
division
staff.
B
818-238-3335
to
address
the
planning
board,
callers
will
be
placed
in
the
queue
until
all
persons
comments
have
been
received.
The
phone
lines
are
now
open.
Please
bear
with
us,
as
we
get
the
first
few
callers
through
for
callers.
Please
remember
to
lower
the
volume
on
your
TV
or
your
computer
and
take
the
phone
off
speaker
when
you
deliver
your
comment.
B
K
K
M
K
C
Does
that
affect
I?
Guess
how
do
I
say
this
when
there's
a
decision
being
made
as
to
how
many
spots
there
are
versus
what
they
think
they're
going
to
stack,
I'm,
sorry,
I'm,
getting
a
little.
What
effect
do
you
think
the
designated
parking
spots
for
pickup
may
have
on
the
overall
parking
scenario
or
snacking
as
any
thought.
C
M
Understand
what
I
can
say
is
that
in
the
code,
the
parking
spaces
are
the
required
parking.
Spaces
are
tied
to
the
the
gross
floor
area
of
the
structure.
So
what
we've
seen
I
think
what
the
research
has
shown
is
that
there
has
been
sort
of
a
decrease
in
the
gross
floor
area
that
a
lot
of
these
restaurant
uses
are
acquiring
because
they're
able
to
use
these
drive-through
facilities.
So
I
can't
speak
to
what
the
effect
would
be
as
to
these.
M
C
Phasing
out,
that's
great
I'm
glad
you,
you
know
they
always
put
into
the
mix
as
a
part
of
the
thought
process
and
then
I
guess.
The
other
thing
is
what
happens.
We
put
the
restaurant
in
and
this
restaurant
turns
into
a
Shake
Shack,
and
now
you
have
lines
going
all
the
way
you
know
a
mile
down
the
road.
Is
there
any
recourse?
We
have
to
correct
that,
in
other
words,
go
back
to
the
property
owner
and
say:
look
you
can't
do
this
anymore.
You
know
it's
really
jamming
traffic
up
beyond
what
our
minimum
requirements
were.
M
A
great
company,
but
what
I
mean
is
that
I
think
you
know
what
we
are
going
to
require
is
a
queuing
lead
analysis
with
as
part
of
the
cup
and
so
we'd
hope
that
the
queuing
late
analysis
would
would
be
able
to
project
what
the
traffic
impact
would
be
to
the
surrounding
neighborhood
or
the
residential
neighborhood.
Specifically,
and
so
the
hope
is
that
these
you
know
the
cup
and
the
public
input
would
be
able
to
or
more
specifically
the
queuing
lane
analysis
would
be
able
to
predict
some
of
these
behaviors.
C
M
E
I
want
to
lay
some
foundation
so
I
can
perhaps
my
my
questions
will
have
some
context.
The
Genesis
of
this
entire
Zone
text
amendment
was
when
there
were
residents
who
came
to
voice
their
concern
regarding
one
establishment
that
had
recently
opened
and
was
having
you
know,
blocking
the
streets
and
so
forth.
Raising
Cane,
that's
on
all,
is
that
correct.
G
So
I
I
can
chime
in
this
is
Frederick
assistant,
director
and
planning.
So
our
colleagues
in
transportation
planning
have
been
conducting
just
that
they've
been
doing
surveys
they've
been
out
there
there's
actually
a
neighborhood
Protection
Program,
that's
being
implemented
around
that
particular
facility.
But
a
lot
of
the
things
that
associate
Planner
on
yabuchi
has
noted
are
that
some
of
those
same
conditions
that
are
creating
impacts
in
the
neighborhood
are
persistent.
G
So
even
with
the
neighborhood
protection
plan
that
includes
cul-de-sacing
streets,
a
parking
permit,
we're
still
having
those
issues,
and
that
is
something
that
they've
been
researching.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
I
believe
in
a
council
item
coming
up
soon
is
to
look
at
permit
parking
and
other
things
in
the
area.
G
E
G
M
E
M
Those
are
the
only
two
questions.
The
first
question
specifically
was
about
how
long
it
would
take
for
the
cep
process
which
we
answered,
and
the
second
question
specifically
asked
for
a
Spanish
translation
of
the
ZTA
draft
materials,
and
then
we
asked
repeatedly
if
there
are
any
other
comments
or
questions
from
from
the
audience
and
we
didn't
receive
any.
E
M
M
We
we
let
them
know
that
all
of
the
documents
that
they
that
were
available
during
the
meeting
were
also
available
online,
and
we
let
them
know
that
we
have
several
Spanish
speakers
in
our
office
who
are
more
than
willing
to
walk
them
through
the
presentation
and
any
other
draft
materials.
If
they
wanted
to
give
us
a
call,
were.
B
M
M
So
if
you
are
residentially
adjacent
drive
through
a
drive-through
restaurant
and
you
wanted
to
sell
your
property
or
sell
your
business,
you
have
within
90
days
to
sell
your
property
and
to
another
business
without
any
issue
from
staff.
However,
once
those
90
days
are
done
with
that,
use
can
no
longer
be
operated
on
on
that
in
that
location.
That's
for
residentially
adjacent
restaurants
with
drive
through.
If
you
are
a
residentially
adjacent,
drive-through
establishment.
M
You
are
permitted
in
that
zone
if
it's,
if
it's
a
permitted
use
in
the
zone
and
but
you
would
still
require
a
cup
for
any
sort
of
expansion
or
alteration
or
modification
to
decide.
If
you
were
selling
it
would
require
a
cup
for
the
new
for
the
new
tenant
to
come
in
outside
of
a
residentially
adjacent
area.
B
M
G
B
I
think
in
that
instance,
it
it
it
it
it
it
it's
it's
worth
doing,
I
think
I.
Think
in
that
instance,
that's
one
drive-through.
That
really
is
not
working
very
well.
The
layout
and
I
think
if
we
had
another
bite
at
the
Apple
which
this
might
possibly
if
they
want
to
expand
or
do
something
different
I
could
see
where
this
we
could
actually
make
this
work
in
our
favor
so
and
it's
not
residentially
adjacent.
So
as.
E
I
C
On
that
same
no
I'm,
very
familiar
with
non-conforming
used
properties
and
changes
not
so
much
in
Burbank,
though
operating
property
non-conforming
use,
I
come
in
and
buy
the
business
I'm
still
able
to
operate
under
that
non-conforming.
Okay,
now
I
decide
that
I
want
to
radically
change
this
restaurant
and
I'm
still
on
legal
non-conforming
use.
C
G
Commissioner
Monaco,
so
are
you
asking
the
question
that
someone
takes
over
existing
use
right
on
a
lock
and
then
realizes
that
they
need
to
expand
the
non-conforming
use
right
throughout
the
lot
they
the
code,
AS
written
in,
will
refer
you
to
1809
I.
Believe.
Is
we
reference
that
section?
You
can't
expand
the
non-conformity.
C
G
I
G
There
are
Provisions
in
the
current
code
that
are
being
struck
out.
That
would
remove
the
exception
to
the
conversion
of
that
into
a
restaurant,
which
was
causing
much
consternation
with
the
community,
and
that
is
that
the
way
that
was
being
determined
was
based
on
a
calculation
that
was
being
done
on
the
amount
of
square
footage
that
was
being
removed
and
the
value
Associated,
and
it
was
being
done
by
the
building
official.
G
So
we're
removing
that,
because
there
was
different
interpretations
of
how
that
should
have
been
done.
The
best
thing
to
do
is
either
and
that's
what
we're
recommending
is
either
the
prohibition
or,
in
the
case
of
those
other
instances,
on
the
conversion
when
it's
not
a
restaurant,
that's
residentially
adjacent
is
that
they
go
through
that
cup
process.
That's
established
in
the
code,
all
right
so.
K
I'm
just
going
to
ask
for
the
benefit
of
the
public
and
just
so
that
we're
all
understanding
what
we're
voting
on
just
some
very
basic
real
life
questions
so
and
I'm
not
trying
to
call
out
Raising
Canes,
but,
for
instance,
Raising
Canes
is
open
if
they
want.
Let's
say
they
close:
they
want
to
convert
to
another
restaurant
within
90
days.
I
K
K
G
K
K
You're
asking
real
real
question
very
good
question
kind
of
like
it
helps
like
it
helps
me
understand
like
a
grid
almost
like
so
and
again,
I'm
not
trying
to
call
out
different,
like
particular
businesses
I'm,
just
using
it
as
a
real
world
example.
So,
let's
say
a
CVS
wanted
to
convert
to
a
fast
food
restaurant
in
a
residentially
adjacent
zone.
Is
that
permitted
at
all
under
the.
K
M
K
G
Thank
you,
commissioner,
Wick
just
for
the
sake
of
the
the
rest
of
the
commission
and
the
audience
exhibit
B-1
correct,
because
in
here
has
the
land
use
tables
all
those
scenarios
you
were
talking
about
for
the
different
zones.
If
it's
one
of
those
particular
ones
where
it's
not
residential
adjacent,
but
in
one
of
those
zones,
then
it
would
be
a
cup
right.
G
E
M
M
G
So
I
think
the
way
it's
written
if
we
can
go
to
the
actual
exhibit,
which
would
be
a
11
on
the
stacking
distance
it
starts
off
at
300..
However,
under
D1
the
applicant
can
request
a
director
consider
a
reduction
in
the
stacking
distance
down
to
200,
but
they'd
have
to
provide
a
study
for
it
right
now.
Our
current
stacking
distance
is
160
feet
and
we
found
that
to
be
inadequate,
so
so
it's
kind
of
like
if
they
can
meet
it
at
300.
G
E
E
G
G
E
E
How
will
that
affect
their
drive
through
and
I'm,
not
talking
about
structurally
placing
a
play
assume
that
they
want
to
add
that
addition,
an
improvement
or
a
modification
to
the
building.
So
what
would
they
have
to
do
to
maintain
their
drive
through
or
how
would
that
affect
the
drive-through
that
they
currently
have.
M
Well,
I
mean
there
would
be
a
300,
so
under
this
ETA
we
would
require
a
300
foot,
queuing
Lane.
Unless
they
asked
the
director
for
a
reduction,
they
could
go
down
to
220.
So
if
presumably,
if
they
had
the
room
on
their
lot
to
include
a
play
place
and
meet
all
the
of
the
bulk
requirements
of
that
play
place.
In
addition
to
meeting
the
requirements
of
a
drive-through,
then
they
would
be
permitted
through
a
cup
process.
M
G
G
E
Basically,
if
they
wanted
to
go
through
a
process
like
that,
then,
like
I
said,
let's
presume
for
a
second,
that
the
addition
or
the
modification
they
wanna
apply
to
the
building
is
perfectly
fine
and
it
meets
all
the
requirements.
That's
going
to
impact
the
drives,
the
drive
through
queuing
that
they
currently
have,
and
if
they
don't
meet
the
300
foot
requirement
and
the
220
foot
requirement
is
not
approved,
then
essentially
they
cannot
have
their
Improvement
or
if
they
want
to,
they
lose
their
drive
through.
G
A
couple
of
scenarios:
one:
is
they
don't
get
their
cup
approved?
They
don't
do
the
expansion
if
they
and
I
can
tell
you
right
now,
just
from
looking
at
that
location,
I,
don't
think
they
even
have
a
right
now,
they're
far
exceeding
even
220.
they're
out
in
the
street
in
some
instances
based
on
operational
requirements.
So
one
of
the
things
that
that
you
look
at
and
the
reality
of
it
is
that
the
conditionally
permitted
use
process
is
really
to
evaluate
whether
the
existing
facility
and
any
change
that
facility
can
be
accommodated
by
the
site.
G
So
I
think
you
kind
of
got
to
strip
it
back
and
say
it's
not
just
the
cup
to
kind
of
check
off
the
boxes.
If,
if
what
they're
trying
to
do
intensifying
the
facility
results
in
an
adverse
impact-
and
we
make
a
finding
as
such,
then
it
won't
be
approved-
I
mean
that's.
The
intent
of
the
cup
is
to
confirm
whether
a
use
whether
existing
or
proposed,
and
it's
a
conditionally
permitted
process,
that
the
resulting
impact
of
that
project
will
not
have
an
adverse
impact
on
the
site
or
on
adjacent
land
uses.
G
If,
if
all
of
that
holds
true,
then
a
cup
would
be
approved,
but
absent
that
we're
obligated
in
our
review
and
ultimately
at
the
commission
to
determine.
Are
they
going
to
create
an
adverse
impact?
Is
it
going
to
create
an
issue
with
circulation?
Is
it
going
to
create
an
issue
with
life
safety?
Is
it
going
to
create
an
impact
where
they
can't
meet
the
requirements
of
the
code,
and
those
are
all
reasons
for
denial
of
the
cup.
E
G
Krispy
Kreme
yeah
yeah
there's
actually
a
proposal
for
an
Amy's
restaurant
with
drive-through,
where
the
old
HomeTown
Buffet
or
the
buffet
was,
and
they
would
be
designing
it.
It
looks
like
their
numbers
are
160
plus,
as
far
as
you
know,
to
basically
get
into
that,
but
it
requires
a
again
a
reduction
of
the
square
footage
of
the
existing
building
to
accommodate
the
drive
through
and
they
have
an
existing
conditional
use
permit.
So
so.
G
Super
high
we
correct
I,
mean,
let's
be
quite
clear.
What
what's
being
proposed
is
to
set
a
bar
so
that
we
can
to
the
best
of
all
the
analysis
that
we've
done
so
that
we
can
ensure
that
they're,
sufficient
on-site
cueing
to
accommodate
the
restaurants
and
the
area
of
concern
that
we're
responding
to
is
restaurants
that
are
residentially
adjacent.
G
Many
of
those
sites
are
not
big
enough
or
deep
enough
to
accommodate
everything.
That's
required
for
us
to
provide
greater
assurances
that
we're
not
going
to
have
these
spillover
effects
that
are
being
talked
about.
That
is
exactly
what
this
is
intending
to
do
is
that
the
old
permitted
by
right
with
some
modifications,
hasn't
worked.
I
C
B
B
E
I
mean
I
think
this
is
being
rushed,
I,
don't
and,
and
the
end
result
of
the
whole
thing
as
it
became
clear,
is
to
apply
so
many
restrictions
that
there
will
not
be
another
drive
through
opening
in
the
City
of
Burbank.
Not
only
that
apply
so
many
restrictions
that
even
an
existing
business
that
has
a
drive-through.
That's
actually
my
bigger
concern
within
90
days.
You
lose
that
right
and
if
you're
residentially
adjacent
well
good
luck,
a
business
that
may
have
been
worth
some
some
money.
E
All
things
are
possible,
but
I
think
at
the
end
of
the
day,
as
responsible
individuals
who
are
supposed
to
fairly
assess
and
evaluate
things
I've
seen,
cities
do
a
reaction,
basically
react
to
something.
Instead
of
putting
an
effort,
there's
there's
some
thoughts
somewhere.
That
says
you
know
what
we're
gonna
kill
all
drive-throughs
in
Burbank
and
that's
that's
where
we're
gonna
head,
then
that's
the
path,
we're
gonna
go,
and
this
is
just
I,
don't
know.
I'm
gonna
call
it
a
quick
way
of
doing
that,
and
and
and
rushing
to
do
that
and
I.
E
Don't
know
why
all
citizens
benefit
from
the
tax
revenues
that
are
generated.
All
citizens
benefit
from
having
a
drive-through
that's
convenient
and
with
the
Advent
of
like
I,
said
the
new
technologies
there
and-
and
we
shouldn't
be
able
we
should.
We
should
be
able
to
come
up
with
better
Solutions
than
just
to
try
and
add
more
code
to
the
code
or
get
rid
of
code
to
try
and
make
the
thing
so
restrictive
that
it
makes
it
impossible
and
that's
what
we've
done
to
everything:
that's
what
cities
do
to
everything
add
code
and
more
code.
E
So
you
can't
even
build
an
apartment
building,
add
more
code
to
more
code.
You
can't
even
build
another
structure,
so
it's
it's.
It's
it's
a
never-ending
cycle
where
we're
our
own
worst
enemies.
Instead
of
trying
to
find
Creative
Solutions
what
we
do,
let's
restricted
people
complain
less
restricted
and
and
I'm
not
faulting
the
people
for
complaining.
Obviously,
they
have
legitimate
complaints,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day
there
needs
to
be
a
better
thought
process
that
goes
into
the
whole
thing
to
make
it
viable
to
make
it
workable.
E
This
is
not
the
end
all
of
everything
instead,
instead
of
saying
well,
let's
sit
down
and
give
this
serious
consideration.
Let's
see
what
are
what
are
some
of
the
other
Solutions?
We
can
come
up
with
how
about
we
create
we
have
we
have
all
these
people
in
the
city
who
are
technologically
advanced.
Why
don't
we
create
a
little
group
that
can
go
out
and
maybe
talk
to
these
businesses
out
there
and
say:
hey.
You
know
what
there
are
all
these
Technologies
out
there
that
we
can
help
you
out,
give
you
resources.
E
We
need
you
to
go
out
and
check
this
out
and
we'll
evaluate
you
in
about
six
months
and
let's
see
if,
if
we've
solved
this
problem,
but
that's
not
the
route
we
take,
we
got
code,
we
can
change
code.
Let's
change
code,
make
it
more
restrictive,
I'm,
not
able
to
support
this,
because
at
least
it
requires
a
little
bit
more
thought
process
than
than
what
we
have
here.
B
C
That
means
that
deliberations
thought
has
been
made
as
to
what
that
property
should
be
doing
in
that
location
when
a
property
changes
and
when
a
business
changes
hand
it
gives
the
city
the
rate
peel
it
back
and
say:
okay,
we
have
a
chance
now
of
looking
at
this
and
saying:
should
we
can
keep
it
that
way
or
since
it
no
longer
conforms,
and
since
now
the
the
area
has
changed
the
demographics
change,
whatever
we're?
Okay
with
that
change,
so
again,
I
think
it's
a
question
of
giving
us
options.
C
What
is
being
proposed
on
these
changes
gives
the
city
the
ability
to
not
only
meet
the
changing
picture
of
what
Drive-In
restaurants
are,
but
I
think
it
also
gives
us
the
opportunity
to
again
step
back
and
say
we
don't
want
that
right.
Now
we
are
going
to
con.
We
are
we,
we
will
consider
it,
but
now
we
have
something
on
paper
and
I
may
be
wrong.
I
mean
tell
me
if
I'm
wrong
here,
but
now
we
have
something
on
paper
that
gives
us
more
options.
I
C
Economic
status
of
these
restaurants,
but
I
just
feel
that
we're
getting
more
options
under
these
proposals,
which
is
what
I
always
like
options
and
while
I'm,
obviously
very
business
friendly
and
I,
want
to
see
businesses
succeed
in
the
area.
At
the
same
time,
I
want
to
see
us
having
the
maximum
amount
of
options
to
approve
or
disapprove
and
development.
K
So
much
chair,
very
respectfully
I
disagree
with
my
colleague
Mr
otakani,
and
that
I
disagree
with
a
couple
things
first
and
foremost
that
this
is
rushed.
I
did
agree
last
meeting
that
this
did
seem
rushed
and
that
more
noticing
was
required
and
I
think
that
they
did,
that
with
the
property
owners
and
that
they
had
more
meetings
and
also
too
this
we're
not
the
end-all
be-all.
K
However,
to
be
perfectly
blunt,
we
we
all
know
I
mean
it's
kind
of
the
elephant
in
the
room
and
we've
all
said
it.
This
is
a
reaction
to
Raising
Canes
I
mean
we
wouldn't
be
here.
If
it
wasn't
for
raising
canes-
and
you
know
what
happened
there
is,
unfortunately,
history
I
do
not
live
in
that
neighborhood
I
just
want
to
state
that
so
I
am
not
impacted
by
that.
However,
that
particular
restaurant
did
impact
a
neighborhood
and
has
changed
that
neighborhood
forever.
Regardless
you
know
you
can
talk
about
the
merits.
K
With
that
being
said,
I
do
support
this
ordinance,
I
think
it's
really
important
to
our
community
and
I'm
very,
very
comfortable
with
the
noticing
that
has
been
done,
and
also
too
to
the
point
where
there
have
been
to
my
knowledge,
businesses
in
Burbank
that
wanted
to
come
in,
but
do
not
have
access
to
a
drive-through
and
have
still
opened
within
the
city,
and
so,
while
a
drive-through
is,
you
know
the
popular
business
model
now
I
do
think
that
there
are
ways
for
businesses
to
open.
You
know.
K
Maybe
they
don't
open,
residentially
adjacent,
maybe
they
just
have
curbside
pickup
I
can
think
of
another
popular
chicken
rest
restaurant
that
doesn't
have
a
drive-through,
but
has
curbside
pickup
or
they
did
or
whatever,
but
I
do
think.
There's
a
will.
That's
there's
a
way
and
that
this
is
a
very
good
balance
of
the
equities
between
that,
and
so
that's
why
I'm
going
to
support
this
ordinance.
L
L
L
B
B
B
E
As
as
individuals
who
are
given
the
task
of
reviewing
and
evaluating
I
think
there
needs
to
be
a
balance,
we
can't
discard
What
the
residents
are
saying,
and
we
can.
We
cannot
discard
the
effect
that
an
action
like
this
would
take
on
the
rest
of
the
community,
so
we
have
one
neighborhood,
one
Street,
let's
say
two
blocks,
and
suddenly
we
are
going
to
completely
change
the
makeup
of
the
entire
city
when
it
comes
to
drive-throughs.
E
E
It
is
a
it's
like
taking
a
hammers
to
a
I,
don't
know
to
a
big
hammer
to
a
small
nail.
So
it's
it
has.
No.
My
comments
have
no
bearing
on
the
preparation
of
this.
My
comments
have
no
bearing
on
the
residents
who
are
complained.
Obviously
they
have
a
right
to
complain
and
they
should
complain
if
there's
an
issue.
E
Not
only
the
process,
but
actually
the
path
chosen
to
solve
a
problem,
because
this
is
not
a
path
to
solve
a
problem
by
creating
by
by
saying
you
know
what
we're
going
to
kill
all
drive
through
businesses
in
Burbank.
Maybe
that's
an
exaggeration,
I
I
have
to
give
you
that,
but
essentially
maybe
another
20
years,
there's
not
going
to
be
one
drive
through
in
the
City
of
Burbank.
E
Possibly,
why
are
we
going
that
in
that
direction?
So
and
as
far
as
the
anyway?
That's
that
that's
the
issue
that
I
have
here,
where
more
thought
needs
to
go
into
solving
the
problem,
rather
than
you
know,
taking
taking
a
Canon
to
kill
a
to
to
to
kill
a
fly
so
that
that's
the
problem
I
have
with.
With
this
resolution,
I
mean
the
Zone
text
Amendment.
B
I
just
want
to
make
one
one
last
go
ahead.
Miss
way,
I
was
just
going
to
make
one
one
last
comment:
I
feel
that
I'm
here
not
to
represent
just
residents
I'm
here
to
represent
business
owners,
people
who
own
property
in
this
community
and
residents
and
taking
an
opposing
view
to
this
doesn't
mean
that
I
don't
care
about
the
residents.
I
just
think
that
there's
should
be
a
different
way
of
handling
it
and
and
not
just
paint
everything
with
one
broad
brush.
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
that
specific
comment.
K
K
So
that's
that's
where
I
feel
like
there
is
some
give
in
it
and
that's
my
comfort
level
with
it,
but
I
understand
that
everybody
has
different
cut
through
levels
and
that's
what
makes
this
commission
great
is
because
we
all
come
from
different
backgrounds,
and
we
all
have
different
opinions
and
dialogue
is
good.
Discussion
is
great.
C
I,
just
I
also
want
to
point
out
that
the
business
models
have
changed
dramatically
in
a
very
short
period
of
time
and
I
think
it's
very
important
for
us
to
have
flexibility
and
that,
yes,
we
represent
both
sides,
our
residents,
as
well
as
the
business
owners
of
this
town,
but
we're
sort
of
like
playing
catch-up
a
little
bit
here,
and
we
really
need
to
give
ourselves
the
ability
to
change
with
the
times
and
I.
Think
that's
what
we're
that's.
L
L
Good
okay,
like
a
motion
to
adopt
a
resolution
of
the
planning
committee,
Commission
of
the
City
of
Burbank,
recommending
the
city
council

an
ordin
ordinance

the

Burbank
municipal
code

the
development
standards
for
the

the
prohibition
of

adjacent

a
conditional

changes,

meeting

AB
2011
standards
that
you
all
discussed.
So
we've
conveyed
the
feedback
we
received
from
the
commission
as
well
as
the
public.
We
had
a
community
meeting,
so
I
just
wanted
to
inform
you
that's
going
to
be
before
the
council
tomorrow
night,
as
well
as
some
emergency
ordinances
that
deal
with
procedures
that
apply
to
both
SB
35
and
ab
2011
projects.
So
just
to
keep
you
informed.
G
N
Yeah
I
have
our
first,
our
first
child
baby
boy,
almost
four
months
old,
named
Dominic
yeah
he's
doing
really
well.
He
was
five
weeks
early
though
so
it
was
quite
scary.
Actually
he
was
in
NICU
for
for
12
days,
but
he's
healthy
and
he's
he's
big
now,
and
you
know
everything's
good.
That
smile
could
change
a
lot
of
things
too.
Even.
C
B
That's
that's
really
wonderful,
congratulations,
I
didn't
know
until
I
heard
and
I
was
just
keeping
some
good
thoughts
for
you,
so
really
I'm,
just
very
happy
for
you.
Thank
you
for
your
wife,
appreciate
it
God
bless.
Thank
you.
