Councilwoman Jovita Mendoza asked that the council re-evaluate and try to work out a deal with Lazy Dog Restaurant.
With plans in limbo for Lazy Dog Restaurant and Bar to locate in Brentwood, one councilwoman is asking the council to take a second look to see if the city can still work out a deal.
“I pulled it for review in order to try to find a way to come to a consensus with him and salvage the deal because we really want it,” Mendoza said. “I pulled it so that we can have more discussion and find a way to get to a ‘yes.’”Though the business owner or anyone could file an appeal to the City Council within 10 days to reconsider those conditions, on Friday a spokesperson from the restaurant said they would not move forward with such an appeal.
The Lazy Dog Restaurant and Bar has long looked to locate in East Contra Costa County. In 2019 it was given the green light to build at the Streets of Brentwood shopping center, but those plans fizzled after an issue arose with the property owner. “It’s been many years that Lazy Dog has been working to come to your town and we’re excited to be coming here now,” Jared Taylor, a company representative, told commissioners at the Aug. 15 meeting. “…Lazy Dog really provides the opportunity for guests to go have a Rocky Mountain dining experience. Jackson Hole, Wyoming-inspired is the architecture that we bring to you and that opportunity to go have that Rocky Mountain dining experience without having to drive and leave town.
“We like detail. We expect more and that’s why we ask for it. I look at the things like the windows, where before there were additional detail elements in the windows. That’s all gone.” “This is a different building, but this is still a beautiful building,” he added. “ And I think it’s important to look at the building with the landscape as well because there is an abundance of landscape we’re proposing, more landscape than the code requires here.”
