Franklin County gives approval to new restaurant on St. George Island

            There will soon be a new restaurant on St. George Island.
Franklin County Commissioners this week gave commercial site plan approval for an 80 seat open air restaurant called Loula and Dan.
Initially the restaurant planned to have its kitchen, restrooms and cooler portable, so the whole restaurant could evacuate during a major storm.
That led to some concerns from residents and other business owners.
Under the new plan, the kitchen, restrooms, storage and cooler will be permanent but they will be elevated so that they meet flood requirements.
The restaurant will have open air patio type dining housed in a Chickee structure – which basically means under a thatched roof with open walls.

The plan was recommended by the county planning and zoning board and was approved unanimously by the county commission.
