Mr. Net Zor, Manager, 1870 State Road 436, Winter Park, Florida came forward. Mr. Zor requested to expand the hours of operation to 3:00 a.m. to hold special events. A brief discussion ensued regarding extending the hours of operation for the sale of alcohol. Mr. Roki Radulovic, landlord, Orlando, Florida came forward. Mr. Radulovic explained that the business owner does not speak English and he felt the manager did not present the information correctly. Mr. Radulovic said that it was always the applicant's intention to cater to parties for their ethnic community. He said the business is currently open 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. He said the bar has been eliminated from the restaurant. He said a good portion of their business will be for parties and catering and they would like to expand the hours during these events. Mr. Radulovic said that it is a buffet type restaurant and the food is out at all times. A lengthy discussion ensued regarding extending the hours of operation for the sale of alcohol. Mr. Sorensen explained that this item was reviewed using the conditional use criteria for a restaurant use. He said when the hours are extended it becomes more of a bar use and that has additional requirements such as distance separation from churches and schools. Mr. Henson asked if there was anyone in the audience who wished to speak in favor of, or in opposition to, the request. No one came forward. Mr. Henson asked for a motion to address CU 14 -19. Mr. Bryan made a motion that the Planning and Zoning Commission approve CU 14 -19, to allow the on -site consumption of beer, wine and liquor in conjunction with the operation of a restaurant located at 1870 State Road 436, based on the findings of fact and conclusions of the staff report dated September 10, 2014, including the eleven conditions of approval with a modification to Condition No. 5 to read: "Alcohol sales and on -site consumption shall not be permitted beyond 12:00 a.m." Mr. Van Meter seconded the motion. The motion passed with a majority vote with Mr. Weinroth casting a dissenting vote.
