RECOMMENDATION:
Recommended Action
COMMUNITY COUNCIL: Denial.

PLANNING STAFF: Two-cycle deferral.
STAFF ANALYSIS: The subject business is a special events center currently operating in suite 10 within the Spring Mill Village Shopping Plaza and proposes to extend current operating hours from 12:30 AM to 2:30 AM with the ability to serve open beverage alcohol by licensed caterers and servers. There remains uncertainty regarding the alignment of the proposed events with the residential zoning and their integration into the surrounding community, as indicated by the materials accompanying the application. The absence of representation by the applicant during the Community Council meeting has been noted, with concerns raised by community members regarding potential noise disturbances and safety issues, notably an instance of exceeding venue capacity. Staff recommends a two-cycle deferral to afford the applicant adequate time to address these concerns. Upon review of Section 7.4.6 of the Zoning Ordinance, the Planning & Sustainability Department recommends a "Two-cycle deferral to the July 2024 zoning agenda to allow time for the applicant to submit updated materials".
