Thank you all for coming out PNZ meeting. Another Time & Place, the application was approved by the vote of 5:2 at the P&Z meeting on September 20, 2022. The project is now on the agenda of the City Council meeting for a vote on October 10, 2022. However, the project will have a tough time being approved without the strong public support of local residents and interested parties.

 

With these changes, what is in front of the City Council for a vote is a great departure from his original concept. The Owner, Mehmet Shon Celik, has a deep interest in running a classy and quality restaurant as reflected in his original designs, and he has the experience to do it again in Richardson. He has shown his commitment to Richardson with his time, money and creativity, as well as with his reach out to the communities, accommodating their concerns as much as feasible. Once built and running, the new restaurant with the original creative concept will become a unique and successful destination eatery for all of North Texas.

 

As residents and patrons of Richardson, we petition the City Council to approve both the special permit for a smoking establishment and the original design and architecture of the restaurant ‘Another Time and Place’. This design is classy and elegant and will provide a memorable dining experience for people from all over DFW. And it is a much-needed neighborhood place of comfort and good food. I ask all of you to show up at the city council meeting on October 10th at 6 pm and before October 5th please email a letter to Chris.Shacklett@cor.gov  Chris will make sure your voice is heard by the Mayor and by The Richardson City Council.

 

Freedom to choose is a cornerstone of the great American experience. Support choice, we need your support today.

Thank you all,

 

Mehmet Shon Celik
