Proposal Withdrawn For Carl’s Jr. Next To Pet Cemetery

Las Vegas Review:

A controversial request to build a fast-food restaurant next to a pet cemetery has been withdrawn, but cemetery supporters remained wary because the property at issue could still be rezoned for commercial use.

Property owners CT-1 LLC asked for a one-acre parcel at Craig Road and Tenaya Way to be reclassified from residential to commercial property, and applied for a permit to build a fast-food restaurant there.

That raised the ire of people connected to the 30-year-old Craig Road Pet Cemetery next door, who felt that a 24-hour restaurant would mar the corner’s tranquility.

This week, CT-1 released a statement saying it would not seek a permit for a Carl’s Jr. restaurant at that corner.

The statement does not mention the requests to change the property use from residential to commercial, though, and so opponents are not letting down their guard, said Curt Weiman, the cemetery’s manager.
