Background Information:
The subject property is located at 141 E. Hopkins Street and is currently occupied by Stonewall Warehouse on the 2nd floor of the building and Freddy C’s on the first floor. The building currently has an existing Conditional Use Permit approved for the life of the TABC license.
The current request is for an amendment to the existing CUP in order to allow the expansion of the floor area of a new business, Freddy’s C’s. The expansion is approximately 411 square feet and will serve as a covered outdoor patio along Hopkins Street (see attached floor plan). This covered outdoor patio is within a portion of the adjacent building where Café Monet previously existed. The remaining portion of the adjacent building will be a retail space.
The property is located in the Downtown Historic District and all exterior modifications associated with the request were approved by the Historic Preservation Commission at their September 6, 2018 Meeting.
