Outdoor Bar Expansion Gets Green Light from Frankfort Township
The Frankfort Township Board has approved a special use permit that will allow a bar in an unincorporated area to expand its service outdoors.
The unanimous decision was made during the board’s April 14 meeting regarding a property located at 8148 Dorstep Lane in Orland Park, which is owned by the Konstantinos Dendrinos LVG Trust.
Anastasia Dendrinos, the property owner’s daughter, presented the proposal to the board. She outlined the plans for upgrading the property and expanding the existing bar to include an outdoor component. According to meeting minutes, she answered all questions from the board regarding the project.
Following the presentation, Trustee Jessica Kot made a motion to recommend approval of the special use permit, which was seconded by Trustee Dave Smith. The motion passed with unanimous support from the board.
Special use permits are required for property uses that are not automatically allowed by zoning codes but may be appropriate for a given area if they meet certain conditions. The board’s approval indicates the proposed outdoor expansion was deemed compatible with the surrounding neighborhood.
