Oppose Hat Creek Burgers Drive-Thru in Historic Old Town
Oppose Hat Creek Burgers Drive-Thru special use permit in Historic Old Town.
Why is this important?
We believe that Georgetown’s business advantage and quality of life is best ensured by protecting the city’s unique pedestrian-friendly historic district.
We are opposed to the special use permit application by Hat Creek Burger Company for an on-site drive-through located at 405 S. Austin Avenue.
According to their application, Hat Creek Burgers plan for up to 1,000 customers per day (up to 250 cars per hour during peak times). This type of car-centric, high turnover restaurant franchise conflicts with the historic district’s unique pedestrian-friendly space nurtured so carefully over the years.
We do not want to set a precedent for other franchise and car-focused businesses in the historic district.
Keep Georgetown special!
