title
Approval of an Application for a Drive Thru Permit for a 7 Brew Restaurant at 2551 Plainfield Road
end
BACKGROUND:
On April 16, 2025, the Department of Public Works received a formal request for a drive thru facility for a proposed 7 Brew Restaurant to be located at 2551 Plainfield Road. The proposed development involves the construction of a new building on a vacant outlot within the Millenium Square Subdivision.
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 various private drive aisles within the subdivision. 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 7 Brew Restaurant at 2551 Plainfield Road.
