<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman">It sounds a little
bit paranormal to me.... Mostly though it sounds like a
take-out restaurant with delivery. (Might want to consider
calling it just that.)<br>
</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman">Plan for parking.
Kitchens in any cosmic realm need staff. (Unless they've
figured out a way to cook remotely...)</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman">In house delivery
will need parking for delivery vehicle(s)<br>
</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman">Independent drivers
delivering meals will queue up in front of the establishment
and nearby. <br>
</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman">Who knows...next
summer customers might even want to pick up their own meals
rather than wait for delivery. <br>

<p class="MsoNormal">A change in direction, has anyone tackled
the issue of “ghost” kitchens yet? I have started the
discussion out of concern that, as restaurants continue to
struggle, we might see a shift to delivery only. Right now it
would not be a clean fit for this as a sit-down restaurant or
fast food restaurant under our zoning. It leans towards fast
food.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a tentative definition:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Ghost Kitchen
(also cloud kitchen, virtual kitchen) common cooking spaces
for prepared meals with no dine-in option, where food is made
to order and delivery to customers for consumption
off-premises.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But am trying to wrestle with parking
requirements. Our Board of Health is also concerned with how
to determine waste water generation for septic design. Has
anyone dealt with these issues yet?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Obviously, changing the use of a restaurant
will have parking and some septic capacity, but, are these
generating more meals meaning greater waste water? Or, given
there are no dishes, less waste water? I have read about
downtown issues with double and triple parked cars on street,
not sure this is an issue with a former restaurant unless it
is a downtown site, but, looking for thoughts.<o:p></o:p></p>
