AI-assisted researchHow this was researched and checked

Karim Inc., operating a Dunkin' Donuts, sought site plan review for a single-lane drive-through at 742 Higgins Road. On November 24, 2020 the Planning and Zoning Commission approved the site plan review by a vote of 8–0, with conditions that include monument and directional signs to guide drive-through traffic. A later staff annual report lists the case as approved by the commission on November 24, 2020.

After the decision: permits at this address

Permits dated after Nov 24, 2020 (Planning and Zoning Commission approves the site plan with conditions).

Computed by code from the building permits in the Park Ridge property release (the county permit feed), as of Nov 1, 2026. A permit shows that work was authorized, not that it was completed, and no permit recorded does not establish that nothing was built. A parcel matched by address is nominated by the address written in the record; that does not prove the record concerns it.
