We have heard concerns circulating about the development permit for a Dairy Queen at 1906 Centre St NE. The original building was destroyed in a fire in 2019. We empathize with the owner and franchisee in navigating a difficult situation in trying to rebuild this business. 1/5
In circumstances such as this, applicants have the ability to build a like-for-like structure to replace the original building. This is an option for any business owner in this situation. 2/5
However, the applicant proposed changes to the previous structure and site plan which included a different configuration for the drive-thru and a modest expansion of the building. This then triggered the project to be evaluated against current bylaws and policies. 3/5
The City tried to work with the applicant to align their new proposal with current City standards. They decided to proceed with their new plans, and then filed an appeal of The City’s decision with the Subdivision & Development Appeal Board (SDAB) 4/5
Upon decision of the SDAB, The City is prepared to continue to work with the applicant on this project, as we recognize the importance of small business success to the Calgary community. 5/5

How do you reconcile this thread from the city about working with the applicants with the comments made by Druh Farrell in the application?
