The proposed addition of an outside patio is for a total of 300 square feet of additional dining area which brings the total dining area for the entire business up to only 636 square feet, as such the restaurant will maintain its low intensity character; B. The proposed expansion meets the criteria established for allowing a reduction in parking requirements, pursuant to Section 1169 of the zoning ordinance because the business is located near the Strand and the downtown area and therefore its customer base primarily arrives by walking or bicycling, or as a secondary trip to their main destination of the beach or downtown shopping, and the site is close to public parking areas; C. The proposed expansion is compatible with the surrounding commercial character, and will not be incompatible with surrounding residential uses as the use of the outside patio for dining will be restricted to daylight hours and will be contained inside a 6 foot high perimeter barrier; - 1 - i 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 iO 11 12 13 i4 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 D.
