Background
In 1998, the TPC received a conditional use permit that approved the construction of the golf course as well as the clubhouse associated with the course. Resolution 98-157 was granted by the City Council, and that resolution also allowed for outdoor dining at the clubhouse. In 2017, a conditional use permit amendment was granted to allow an outdoor patio on the south side of the clubhouse under resolution 17-058.
At this time, the TPC wishes to expand the patio to add an additional bar area and an outdoor kitchen. The expansion would increase the number of seats on the patio to 56, from the 46 approved in 2017. The 2017 approval included an extensive landscape plan. Some of that landscaping will be removed for the new patio area. That landscape will need to be relocated or replaced so that the number of trees and shrubs remain the same. A final landscaping plan is to be submitted with the site plan application and subject to staff approval.
Parking is not a concern at this site given the large number of spaces provided for the clubhouse.
All conditions of Resolution 98-157 will remain unchanged. The conditions added for this approval will include working with the Met Council on SAC determination for the area, going through the site plan approval process for the construction, and working with the city clerk on fencing requirements if alcohol will be served in this area. Other conditions listed are the general conditions placed on all outdoor dining conditional use permits.
Recommendation
By motion, approve the Resolution.
