Description/Background:
Thom Williamsen (Applicant) has submitted an application for a rezone of 1.14 acres located at 10060 S. State Street from CBD-O to CBD. The Applicant has expressed his intentions to demolish the existing building on the site and build a two-tenant commercial building that would include a retail tenant and a drive-through restaurant.

The existing building was previously used as a restaurant (Sweet Tomatoes), but has been vacant. The subject property is adjacent to an area zoned CBD with drive-through restaurants. The subject property is located in The Cairns Master Plan area.
The Application was presented to the Planning Commission in a public hearing on June 7, 2018. The Planning Commission passed a motion by a vote of 7-0, recommending that the City Council approve the proposal.
