Drive-Thru Proximity to Residences
The city requires drive-through buildings and speaker boxes to sit at least 200 feet from single-family homes. Three proposed restaurants near West University Drive couldn't meet that, and the commission agreed with staff that the layout wasn't appropriate next to residences.
Drive-through restaurant permits on West University Drive
Three fast-food chains — Burger King, Popeyes, and Taco Bueno — are seeking specific use permits for drive-through restaurants on West University Drive near Aviation Way. Drive-throughs can bring traffic and queueing questions for nearby residents and commuters.
