Application for a Drive Thru Permit for a Jack in the Box Restaurant at 2101 IL Route 59
end
BACKGROUND:
On September 26, 2024, the Department of Public Works received a formal request for a drive thru facility for a proposed Jack in the Box Restaurant to be located at 2101 IL Route 59. The restaurant will be located on the site of the former Arby’s Restaurant. The building will be remodeled along with other site improvements. The City’s Planning Division has reviewed the preliminary site plan and has no remaining outstanding items. The Public Service Committee will review this matter.
CONCLUSION:
The applicant has submitted a site plan to the Department of Public Works showing the operation of the proposed drive thru. The applicant has provided signage and pavement markings for adequate traffic flow into the drive thru while maintaining sufficient drive thru storage capacity to meet the requirements of the Department of Public Works.
As required by the City of Joliet Code of Ordinances, the Department of Public Works has reviewed the drive thru facility site plan (see attachment). Access to the site will be available from three driveways from private access aisles, all of which have full access. Upon final investigation, the Department of Public Works has determined that there is sufficient storage on the site, and therefore recommends approval of the drive thru permit subject to approval of the final engineering plans.
RECOMMENDATION:
recommendation
Based on the above, it is recommended that the Mayor and City Council approve the Drive Thru Permit for a Jack in the Box Restaurant at 2101 IL Route 59.
