New McDonald's proposed in Fayetteville By MONROE ROARK
A proposal to tear down the McDonald's restaurant in Fayetteville and build a new one on the same site is under consideration this month by the city's Planning and Zoning Commission. McDonald's wants to demolish the existing building at 465 N. Glynn Street in favor of an entirely new facility with a new parking area, curbing, and intensified landscaping, according to city staff reports. The proposed architectural upgrades would also include an indoor play area. City staff has met with McDonald's about certain technical issues which the restaurant is addressing at this time. Revised plans had not been received by the city as of late last week. Other agenda items this month for the commission, which convenes for its monthly work session Tuesday at 7 p.m. and for its voting meeting Jan. 22 at the same time, include the following: Review of elevation plans for a proposed second building in the Clairmont office complex. The applicant wants to build a professional office building at 290 Ga. Highway 314 that would mirror the adjacent building, with all exterior architectural features the same except for larger entries in an attempt to better balance the exterior elevations, according to city staff. The applicant is addressing concerns raised by city building officials. Development plans for Mayfield Dairies on Robinson Road. An 800-sq. ft. office building has been proposed, along with four additional parking spaces. The site was previously approved to allow a cross dock for dairy trucks at the site. City staff has asked for brick samples to be submitted and the location of the dumpster to be identified. A variance request from J & J Quality Homes in the industrial park. The applicant wishes to eliminate two parking spaces near the road, which would bring the total below the required eight spaces, and shift the building 12 feet toward the road to reduce the amount of impervious surface area. City staff is reviewing the request to see if it would affect any construction details which were previously approved. A variance request from Willene Beard of 105 Eastfield Court, who proposes to install a roof and enclosure over an existing deck in her backyard on a corner lot in the Oakbrook subdivision. This would reduce the rear yard setback from 20 to 16.2 feet. Letters from neighboring property owners indicate that there are no objections to the request, and city staff said that decks are a common amenity in the neighborhood.
