Hiqhway one, North, requestinq a variance to the terms of the Official Comprehensive Zoninq Ordinance of the Villaqe of Tequesta, Ordinance No. 355, as amended, Section %, supplemental Requlations, 8ubsection I, Establishments Sellinq Intouicatinq Beveraqes, to allow for the sale of intouicatinq liquors, wines and beveraqes for consumption on the premises within a one thousand foot (1000�) radius of any church, school or youth center, in lieu of no sale of intouicatinq liquors, wines and beveraqes for consumption on the premises within a one thousand foot (1000�) radius of any church, school or youth center, as required bp the Zoninq Ordinance. Scott Ladd explained there were two letters in.the file from: 1) Palm Beach County Department of Planning, Zoning and Building stating no objection to the variance request; and 2) St. Judes Catholic Church stating no objection to the variance request. In attendance in representation of this application were Tom Calco, Vice President of Leasing for the Sterling Companies; Paula Lynn Clancy, Property Manager; and Giacomo Guagliardo, Chef and Owner of Maria's Restaurant at Tequesta Shoppes. Mr. Calco stated that Sterling Companies purchased the above- referenced property in August, 1993, which at the time had restaurants operating with Liquor Licenses, but the restaurants have since left and the Licenses have lapsed. Board ot Adjustment Meetinq Minutes December 13, 1993 Page 3 -------------------------- Giacomo Guagliardo has now opened "Maria's Restaurant" in the location previously occupied by "Nicoles" and requests a beer/wine liquor�license to operate the restaurant. Sterling Companies' request is not only for a liquor license for Maria's Restaurant, but rather a liquor license with blanket approval for the entire shopping plaza. Chairman Northamer inquired as to what type of hardship would be suffered if the liquor license was not granted. Mr. Calco answered that it would have_a marked major negative effect on the volume of business at the restaurants. He explained further that the intent is not to have a bar and nightclub . atmosphere, but merely the liberty to serve beer and wine with meals. Mr. Guagliardo has an excellent reputation in Palm Beach County as restauranteur and chef, and has never operated a"bar" type of business. The particular properties that presently need a liquor license are units # 159 (adjacent to Walgreens), 181 to become Bombay Restaurant, and 185 (formerly Abaco Grille). Scott Ladd explained that the applicant is essentially seeking blanket approval for the entire shopping center which would allow any tenant space to have a restaurant with the ability to serve alcoholic beverages. Mr. Ladd explained he had no problem with that and infonaed the Board they could attach conditions to the property owner, as has, in the past, been attached to individual tenants. Boardmember Kirkland stated that, though he could understand the efficiency of a blanket approval, he felt uncomfortable with granting the approval to the property owner as opposed .to the tenant, as well as being uncomfortable with a blanket approval. Boardmember Schauer shared the concern of a blanket approval and stated he would have no problem with granting approval to individual tenants.
