Case #11: <br /> <br />Request for Preliminary Site Plan Review of Asissi Restaurant/Nightclub: <br />Case of National Growth, LLC <br /> <br />Community Development Director Trudgeon stated the Asissi Restaurant/Nightclub is an <br />exciting project planned for the Town Center Core Area. This is a project that is allowed in the <br />Town Center District. The Council will review the preliminary site plan tonight. Staff and the <br />applicant would like to hear comments from the Council regarding the design. <br /> <br />Kathy Anderson, President of Architectural Consortium, provided a presentation of <br />preliminary site plan for Asissi Restaurant/Nightclub, including the following information: <br /> · Deli market <br /> · Lunchtime restaurant <br /> · Curbside pickup <br /> · Nightclub <br /> · Flame Tower/Water Tower <br /> · Rooftop with bar, fireplaces, grills, outdoor movies/cinemas <br /> <br />the <br /> <br />Abel Lawabni, Asissi Restaurant/Nightclub, provided an overview of the concept for Asissi <br />Restaurant/Nightclub including the following information: <br /> · Restaurant with Italian cuisine: somewhat on the high end, but with casual prices; buffet <br /> style served by the chef; waitresses serving drinks <br /> · Transition to a nightclub at about 11:00 p.m. including dry nights for teens, music on <br /> Sunday nights for Christians, and a biker night. <br /> <br />Mr. Lawabni asked what the schedule is for the park with water features, which is essential to <br />Asissi. He asked when the road between Asissi and the water feature park will be completed and <br />who is in charge of that road. <br /> <br />City Administrator Norman replied the first phase of the park may be done as early as next year, <br />but it may take three years to complete. <br /> <br />Mr. Lawabni stated they purchased this outlot and want Asissi to be the anchor. It will be a <br />strong and solid anchor, but what will happen around this anchor is important to be sure that the <br />plan will work well. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated the intent is to move things along. It is necessary to work with the master <br />developer, as they have a commitment to do certain things. <br /> <br />City Administrator Norman stated this developer is putting a lot of effort, energy and financial <br />commitment into this facility to make it a true anchor. They would likely want the City to <br />appreciate those efforts. He noted the City has made a commitment with the parking ramp. <br /> <br />Councilmember Elvig stated the City made a commitment to Cobom's in the configuration of the <br />main road. The City realizes the anchors are important to this project. They have been looking <br />for something like this concept, with someone to pioneer something state of the art in the <br />community. <br /> <br />City Council / November 22, 2005 <br /> Page 18 of 23 <br /> <br /> <br />
