Loomis Rd. The applicant is proposing to operate a Turkish-style kebab restaurant. The restaurant will offer kebabs, wings, and sandwiches. The property is zoned C-3 Highway & Commercial Services District, which permits limited-service restaurants as a Special Use. Since this tenant space has previously received a Special Use Permit for a limited-service restaurant, Rosa’s Cocina, only a Special Use Review is required. Staff recommends this item be expedited to the Common Council meeting on May 19, 2026. The proposed hours of operation are 11:00am to 9:00pm, daily. There will be two (2) full-time employees and three (3) part-time employees. Site Review A site plan was not submitted, but the site is still subject to review when the Plan Commission and Common Council consider a Special Use Review. Signage: The existing freestanding sign, located along W. Loomis Rd., is a legal nonconforming sign. The existence of the sign pre-dates the current Sign Code, and the Special Use Review from January 2024 triggered conformance of the pylon sign within 24 months. The Special Use Permit from May 2025 maintained the deadline of January 2026 to replace or retrofit the monument sign with a conforming one. A permit was issued on January 7, 2026, for the new sign, but it has not been installed yet. Additionally, there is more window signage than the allowed amount currently installed in the tenant space. The maximum allowable window signage is no more than 20% coverage of each window. Staff recommends requiring that the signage be reduced to be within allowable levels before the Occupancy Permit is issued. Page 3 of 6 PC 5/12/2026 Outdoor Storage: Staff noticed that there were a few items being stored outside, including pallets, windshield washer fluid, some building materials, and a small dumpster not located within the dumpster enclosure. Staff recommends that these items be required to be addressed before the Certificate of Occupancy is issued. Lighting, HVAC/Utility Box Screening, Fencing, and Landscaping: No issues or proposed changes. Engineering Comments: N/A The service station requires 8 parking spaces (8 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft.). The restaurant will require 11 spaces, for a total of 19 needed. There are 8 existing parking spaces, including one ADA stall. The Common Council may waive the shortage. Staff recommends approval and that this item be added to the agenda for the May 19, 2026 Common Council meeting.
