The first step to a successful business is a brilliant business plan, right? Determined to craft the perfect strategy, Todd and his friend created a business plan for a course at Louisiana State University. The project received a B-, the lowest in the class! The professor said a chicken finger restaurant would never work. The banks said the same. Undeterred, he took a job as a boilermaker working 90-hour weeks in a Los Angeles refinery, and then as a fisherman working 20-hour days fishing commercially for Alaskan Sockeye Salmon – to raise money himself. After purchasing and renovating his own building, Todd opened the first Raising Cane’s on August 28, 1996 – at the North Gates of LSU. It was an immediate success. On March 16th, 2020 Raising Cane’s celebrated the opening of its 500th restaurant in Foothill Ranch, California, just down the street from the refinery where he worked to earn his money for the 1st Cane’s. Since 1996, the company has expanded to 547 restaurants in 29 states and 5 countries, all while staying true to its One Love – Chicken Finger Meals! Raising Cane’s has a core value which is to Work with a Sense of Purpose. They appreciate Chicken Finger Meals, Customers, Crew, Community, and Culture. The company’s vision is to grow restaurants serving Customers, all over the world, and be the brand for Quality Chicken Finger Meals, a great Crew, Active Community Involvement, and a cool Culture. To date, Raising Cane’s has given back over $10 Million to their communities. The primary focus areas are Education, Feeding the Hungry, Pet Welfare, Active Community Involvement, and Business Development & Entrepreneurship. ONE GREAT RESTAURANT AT A TIME The Raising Cane’s design theme is One Great Restaurant at Time! The building architecture Is fun, friendly and approachable; possesses an energetic environment; reinforces its cool crewmembers; is warm and welcoming; and feels unique and original. The design is contemporary but not modern. The patio is a dynamic and social space – an extension of the inside – welcoming to all demographics and is also pet friendly when permissible. The open kitchen showcases crewmembers, quality ingredients, and cooked to order chicken. It’s a theatre experience – with lemonade making, coleslaw and sauce preparation, in clear customer view. Each restaurant shows Cane’s commitment to community by including a hand painted exterior mural including the name of the City or neighborhood, as well as boasting an interiors package with dedicated local graphic art and materials specific to that area. Exterior signage and lighting is designed to meet brand minimum standards, and has been thoughtfully considered to ensure no overly brash colors or excessive sizes, and fits within the context of the surrounding area. The landscaping package is custom designed for each location which not only compliments the building but consequently heightens the curb appeal for the neighborhood. The overall design is created to be tasteful, welcoming, and uniquely part of its community. 4 | P a g e PROJECT OVERVIEW The project is a proposed Raising Cane’s located on the northwest corner of the intersection of Harlow Rd. and Gateway St. The proposed establishment will be an approximately 2,862 square foot one-story building with an outdoor dining area. The restaurant will provide the convenience of drive-thru ordering and pick-up, as well as to-go pick-up parking stalls for those who have ordered ahead. The addition of this neighborhood Raising Cane’s complements the existing development in the area and will provide a convenient and fun location for patrons to enjoy quality food with friends and family. EXISTING CONDITIONS The 1.57 acre site is zoned Community Commercial per the City of Springfield Development Code. The site was previously developed as a sporting goods store. The site currently contains some existing site lighting, landscaping, and parking. SITE ACCESS The site is currently accessible via two driveways on two internal access roads. The proposed site layout will maintain the two existing driveways. DEMOLITION The redevelopment will require demolition of the existing store and areas of the parking lot. FLOODPLAIN The project lies outside of the 100-year floodplain, or in Zone X, as found in the FEMA Flood Zone map, #41039C1133F, dated 6/2/1999. UTILITIES Existing onsite utility services will be used to service the proposed Raising Cane’s, where feasible. Water: It is assumed there is water in the internal access road to the east of the site that can be tied into for the site. This project anticipates a new 2” building service water line, a new 1” irrigation meter, and potentially a new 6” fire service and a new 6” fire hydrant line, if the building is required to be sprinkled by the Fire Marshal. Sewer: GIS provided by the city shows sewer in the internal access road to the east of the site that can be tied in to. Electric: The existing meter pedals and the transformer serving them in the northeast corner of the site are to be protected in place. The existing Springfield Utility Board transformer on site will be relocated south and used for service. Gas: Existing gas main running along the internal access point north of the site for gas point of connection. Telecommunications: The existing Comcast pedestal in the northeast corner of the site is to be protected in place. The existing Comcast pull box in the south area of the site is to be relocated to the southwest corner and utilized for service. 5 | P a g e PARKING ANALYSIS The below parking analysis has been completed to support to this project: •Required Parking o There is no minimum space requirement o Maximum off-street parking is 125% of the suggested off-street parking standard shown below ▪1 stall per 100 SF of gross floor area (not including the outdoor patio per Planner) ▪2862 sf = 29 parking stalls ▪125% of 29 stalls = 37 stalls •Provided Parking o Standard provided = 43 o Accessible per ADA required = 2 o Total parking proposed = 45 spaces The site has a shared parking agreement with the adjacent property that allows for a parking total that exceeds the maximum allowable parking standard. 6 | P a g e PRE-APPLICATION CONFERENCE QUESTIONS 1.
