Staff is very supportive of this kiosk type restaurant. The Subway kiosk <br /> will maximize available space and provide foodservice capabilities. <br /> In 2011 the Community Center recorded 386,000 visitors. The Eagles Nest at the <br /> New Brighton Community Center is a regional draw. On Saturdays during the <br /> busiest months of the year the community center hosts up to 20 birthday parties. <br /> With the addition of Ramsey County Library, an additional 100,000 users have <br /> entered the facility. A food establishment in the community center would be a <br /> welcomed addition to our already established customer base and their guests. <br /> Parks and Recreation staff has worked directly with Subway to provide space <br /> within the community center. Subway has provided the City of New Brighton with <br /> design plans for the new franchise (see attached). <br /> Parking has been brought forth as a potential issue. <br /> Parking: <br /> In 2011, Ramsey County Library became a tenant in the facility. At this time <br /> parking was reviewed and the over-flow lot on the south side of the facility was <br /> expanded. Currently the community center has 297 parking stalls, including 8 <br /> handicap stalls. The location and breakdown of these parking stalls is outlined <br /> below: <br /> West Lot: 59 stalls <br /> South Lot: 25 stalls (6 handicap) <br /> Over-Flow Lot: 91 stalls <br /> East Lot: 115 stalls (2 handicap) <br /> North Alley: 7 stalls <br /> 297 Total <br />
