City of Fenton Planning and Zoning Commission Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting
The Commission discussed and approved a text amendment to the zoning code, allowing for drive-through services adjacent to residential districts or uses under a special use permit, provided the intervening street is an arterial or collector street or via a specific approval process. Additionally, the Commission reviewed a petition for a special use permit for a new drive-through coffee restaurant, noting that a traffic impact study and site plan review would be required to address potential circulation and congestion concerns in the surrounding area.

Board Of Adjustment Meeting
The meeting focused on a petition regarding a variance request for the property at 335 Skinker Drive, currently operating as an outdoor recreation facility. Key discussion points included the need for encroachment variances related to existing structures (go-kart track, maintenance building, and mini-golf course) and proposed parking lot expansion within the front and rear setbacks. The board also discussed the impact of proposed zoning amendments on landscape buffer requirements, which would render part of the variance request moot if approved, and addressed technical questions regarding traffic flow, fire code compliance for dead-end access, and parking space counts.
