patio that faces the highway, I recommend adopting this idea to make it pleasant,
attractive, and very usable.
Applicant: The existing patio will be covered with a half wall, acting as a boundary or
barrier.
Kathy Talley: I am concerned about the north patio. I want to make sure people can go
back there and enjoy it.
Michael Springer: It looks like you have extensive signage, so please make sure you
adhere to the City’s Sign Ordinance.
Amy Torres-Lepp: I am also very excited about the business coming in; however, with
the patio feature please look at the successful patio concepts and adopt those ideas.
Make sure the outdoor spaces are enjoyable and usable spaces.
Austin Reynolds: From an aesthetics standpoint, the identifier for valet - if that could
not include orange cones.
