Carbone's Request for Extended Outdoor Patio Hours
Paster Enterprises, owner of the Lakeville Crossing multi -tenant retail center located west of
Cedar Avenue (CSAH 23) and south of 1601h Street (CSAH 46), is requesting extended outdoor
patio hours of operation for one of their tenants, Carbone's Bar and Grill.
Outdoor patios for bars and restaurants serving alcohol are regulated by Chapter 3-1-8-14 of the
City Code under alcoholic beverage licensing. Subsection C.7 limits the hours of operation for
serving liquor or food on an outdoor patio located within 150 feet of a residential district to 7:00
a.m. -10:00 p.m. Carbone's, which is located within 150 feet of a residential district, is
requesting the City Code be amended so their patio can serve alcohol and food until 11:00 p.m.
Sunday through Thursday nights and 12:00 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights.
The City Council approved Carbone's liquor license to allow their outdoor patio on July 2, 2012.
The patio is located on the east end of their tenant space, is enclosed by a solid wall on the south
side facing the adjacent residential neighborhood, and is covered by a roof over the southerly
portion. Community and Economic Development staff is not aware of any complaints from the
adjacent neighborhood since the Carbone's outdoor patio has been in operation.
Babe's Bar and Grill also has an outdoor patio located within 150 feet of a residential district and
has the same hours of operation restrictions. The City Code requirements for outdoor patios that
serve alcohol is not specific with respect to the commercial zoning district in which the bar or
restaurant is located. As such, unless the City Code is amended to create separate hours of
operation for each of the City's commercial zoning districts, any changes to the outdoor patio
hours of operation for Carbone's would apply to Babe's as well.
Paster Enterprises and Carbone's representatives will present their request to the City Council at
the April 28th at the work session.

The first phase of the Lakeville Crossing shopping center was

opened for business in 2002. As this property abuts a
Smith & Dodd Road
West Saint Paul, Minnesota
neighborhood of single family homes, great care was taken during
Mounds View, Minnesota
the planning process between the property owner and city staff to
insure that the commercial and residential components would

integrate well together. No service drives were placed behind the

building and a bermed buffer area with many trees was added to
Mendota Heights, Minnesota
screen the residential properties from the commercial area.

years, due to the support of the community, the restaurant has
expanded twice and most recently, an outdoor patio area was

This restriction on hours of operation is negatively impacting the
restaurant. As an example, on many Friday nights, the Minnesota
Twins game is on the television on the outside patio and extends
past 10:00 P.M. Carbone's has then had to move those patrons
inside. Typically half will move inside, but half will leave and go to
Apple Valley where patios are open until 2:00 A.M. nightly. With
the 10:00 P.M. restriction, Carbone's really can't sit any tables
past 9:15 or 9:30 PM.
We would request that an amendment to the current ordinance be
considered that would allow Carbone's to better serve their
customers and compete with similar establishments in adjacent
communities. We would propose that the 10:00 P.M. patio limit be
changed to 11:00 P.M. on weeknights, (Sunday through Thursday
nights) and 12:00 A.M. on weekends, (Friday and Saturday
nights).
The Carbone's patio has been in operation for a full year with no
known complaints or issues. It has been well designed to prevent
noise and light from entering the adjacent neighborhood. With the
short summer season, it would be of great benefit for the
residents of Lakeville to be able to enjoy outdoor restaurant patios
for an extended time period.
Please review and consider this request, and inform us as to the
procedure required to formally request this change.
Sincerely,
Paster Enterprises
