of alcoholic beverages at 2551 Drew Street, #209. On March 17, 1998, the Planning and
Zoning Board approved a conditional use for East of Java, an establishment adjacent to the
subject property, to sell beer and wine. The proposed use is consistent with the intent of
the land Development Code. Two other businesses in the complex serve beer and/or wine
in the subject retail complex which is surrounded by office, restaurant and other types of
commercial uses. The use is not expected to adversely impact surrounding properties.
Approval will not increase demands on public facilities. Staff recommends approval,

The applicant is requesting conditional use approval to allow package alcoholic
beverage sales as an accessory use at 2999 Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard. The proposed use
complies with all applicable sections of the Land development Code and is in compliance

unreasonably diminish the use, enjoyment, or value of surrounding properties. The glare
and direction of lights from both motor vehicles and illuminating fixtures on the site shall
not adversely affect surrounding properties. Sufficient parking is provided and the use is
consistent with the community character of the properties surrounding this use. The
proposed use is not anticipated to adversely affect the property values in the area since the

outdoor entertainment at this site. The proposed use is compatible with surrounding
