The Planning, Building and Zoning Committee approved a site plan amendment for a Casey’s restaurant and gaming cafe to occupy 1,600 square feet at 2069 North Barrington Road, the space formerly occupied by Wholesome Health Pharmacy.

Staff findings and conditions: Planning staff told trustees the existing parking supply should be adequate most days given the current three-tenant mix, and that, when unusual peak demand occurs, overflow parking (18 spaces) is available to the east on Northwest Corporate Center property under an easement. The ordinance includes conditions requiring village approval for future tenant changes that may increase parking demand and requires the property owner to remedy any parking issues if they arise.

Applicant timeline and identity: Tim Schneider, representing the applicants, introduced family members and the business namesake and said interior renovation is estimated to take about three months. When asked about an opening target, the applicant said the goal is to be "Open by Saint Patrick's Day."

Motion and outcome: The site plan amendment passed unanimously by voice vote on the dais; no public opposition was recorded in the transcript.

Next steps: The owners will complete the interior build-out under the conditions in the ordinance and coordinate with village staff if parking concerns materialize.
