Golden Corral gets Gainesvilles OK, over protests from area business
Placeholder Image
Despite protests from neighboring businesses, the Gainesville Planning and Appeals Board gave its OK Tuesday night to a Golden Corral restaurant off Browns Bridge Road and Pearl Nix Parkway. “I’m hoping that because there’s such a large (shared) parking area and such diverse types of food (choices at nearby restaurants) that they … complement each other,” board member Jane Fleming said. The board voted to approve Bryan Day’s request for a variance, or that, in allowing the Golden Corral, setbacks from Brown Bridge and Pearl Nix Parkway be reduced and the number of required parking spaces drop to 25 from 88.
