STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
COUNTY OF NEW HANOVER
ORDER CORRECTING SPECIAL USE PERMIT
The County Commissioners for New Hanover County, having held a public
hearing on September 7, 1999 to consider application number S-336, 8/99 submitted by
John and Carole Coble, a request to correct a Special Use Permit granted on December 2,
1991, and having heard all the evidence and arguments presented at the hearing, makes
the following FINDINGS OF FACT and draws the following CONCLUSIONS
The Order granting said Special Use Permit, under date of December 2,
1991, states that all of the applicable requirements for issuance of said
permit are satisfied and that the permit for the dining room addition to
Trails End Steak House, an historic restaurant, is granted.
2. Paragraph 38(3) of said Order concerns the requirement for off-street
parking.
3 Said Paragraph 38(3) recites that the "restaurant has a seating capacity of
90 and the addition would increase the number of seats to 110."
4 In fact, prior to the granting of the Special Use Permit on December 2',
1991, the Trails End Steak House had a seating capacity of 175, consisting
of 90 seats in the front dining room, 60 seats in the rear dining room, and
25 seats in the bar area.
5 The purpose and intent of the Special Use Permit granted on December 2,
1991, was to allow the expansion of the front dining room so as to allow
additional seats to be added to the restaurant, over and above the seats
already present in the restaurant. At that time, the Applicant presented
proofs satisfactory to the Commissioners that there was sufficient off-
street parking on the site to satisfy all applicable requirements as the same
existed in 1991
6. As a result of the granting of said Special Use Permit on December 2,
1991, 20 seats were added in the front dining room, thereby increasing the
seating capacity of the restaurant to 195 (110 seats in the front dining
room, 60 seats in the rear dining room, and 25 seats in the bar area).
7 At all times since the completion of the addition to the front dining room
as permitted by the Special Use Permit granted on December 2, 1991,
Trails End Steak House has continuously had a seating capacity of 195
seats.
8. The recitals in Paragraph 38(3) of the Order Granting a Special Use
Permit dated December 2, 1991, were and are in error as concerns the
number of seats in the restaurant.
9 The Order Granting a Special Use Permit dated December 2, 1991, should
be corrected so that Paragraph 38(3) correctly states the true seating
capacity of the restaurant.
. ~ ... .-
.
10 The applicable 1991 standards for off-street parking to accommodate 195
seats require 75 parking spaces (1 space per 3 seats and I space per 2
employees). Based upon the parking layout presented by the applicant,
sufficient off-street parking existed and does exist to comply with the
applicable 1991 standards.
NOW, THEREOFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the application for the correction
of the Order Granting Special Use Permit dated December 2, 1991 be granted and that
said Order be and hereby is corrected as fo llows:
Paragraph 3B(3) of said Order is corrected to state that the total number of
dining seats in the restaurant, following the addition referred to in said
Order, is 195 seats, that the applicable 1991 standards require 75 parking
spaces, and that such parking requirements have been met based upon the
proofs submitted by the applicant.
2. The site plan, as revised to correct the parking layout, remains in effect.
3 Said corrections shall be deemed to be retroactive and to relate back to the
issuance of said Order on December 2, 1991
4 Except as hereby corrected, said Order is and shall remain in full force and
effect.
This the 7th day of September, 1999.
