Site Information: 

Address: 2871 Winner's Circle Drive 

Lot Area: 1.62 acres

Property Owner: Canterbury DBSV Development LLC

Zoning: Planned Unit Development (PUD)

2040 Comp. Plan: Entertainment 

Greystone Construction / Studio M Architects has submitted an application for a PUD Amendment to the Canterbury Southwest PUD to allow for the construction of a roughly 9,600 square-foot building to house Mr. Pigstuff restaurant and one or two additional tenant spaces.

The initial Canterbury Southwest PUD was approved in June of 2020. The development of each lot requires a PUD Amendment, as the building and final site design / tenants were unknown at the time of the initial PUD approval. To date, Greystone Construction's corporate office, the Omry Apartments and the Badger Hill / Bravis and Next Steps Learning Center buildings are the approved developments in the PUD.

The proposed use of the site as a restaurant / retail building complies with the Entertainment land use classification of the 2040 comprehensive plan. 

Proposed hours of operation for Mr. Pigstuff are:

• Monday - Thursday: 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
• Friday and Saturday: 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.
• Sunday: 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. 

The Mr. Pigstuff space of the building is proposed to have an outdoor patio area. City Code regulations require patios used after 10:00 p.m. that are within 100' of a residential use to have a conditional use permit. The proposed patio is greater than 100' from the Omry site, so a conditional use permit is not required. 

Building Discussion: 

The proposed exterior building materials are:

• Fiber cement alternating lap siding
• Fiber cement board and batten siding 
• Burnished Concrete Masonry Unit Block veneer
• Pre-finished corrugated metal panel 
• Rough cedar framing for the patio / trellis area. 

The character / materials of the proposed building are similar to the Omry, Greystone and Bravis / Badger Hill buildings and appears to meet the materials requirements of City Code. 25% of the facade with the main entrance is required to be windows. 

The applicant has provided a revised architectural drawing (attached) showing level or sloped parapets at the building entrances. Staff prefers the sloped parapets at the entrances. If the building will be two tenants, staff must approve any proposed elevation revisions for design changes that result from the proposed elevation for three tenants. 

Site Discussion: 

Vehicle access to the parking lot will be via Winner's Circle Drive and Suzanne's Way.  The applicant is proposing 94 parking spaces on the site and a shared parking agreement with the Bravis / Badger Hill site and the site to the east. On-street parking is not allowed on Schenian Street or Winner's Circle Drive. Staff has added a condition in the draft amendment ordinance that requires a recorded access and parking agreement. If the uses on this site exceed the amount of provided parking, that the use on the adjacent site must have operating hours that allow for shared parking, as Mr. Pigstuff is anticipated to use approximately 70 of the 94 parking spaces on this site. Up to 50% of a site's required parking may be provided as shared / cooperative parking. 

The applicant is proposing pedestrian connections to the building from the sidewalk along Shenandoah Drive, Suzanne's Way and a pedestrian connection through the parking lot from Winner's Circle Drive. Staff is recommending that the pedestrian ramp directly in front of the building align with the other access islands from Winner's Circle Drive. 

Overall, staff recommends the Planning Commission give a positive recommendation to the City Council of the PUD Amendment request, subject to the conditions in the draft ordinance.
