Chick-fil-A's plans for Mountain View draw more opposition

Opposition is building against Chick-fil-A's plans to open a new drive-thru restaurant in Mountain View.

A second appeal was filed Monday in the hopes of overturning a zoning administrator's July 11 decision to grant the embattled fast-food chain a series of permits for a location at 1962 El Camino Real.

Unlike the first appeal, Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy's opposition to same-sex marriage didn't factor into the latest effort, said Bruce England, who submitted the paperwork on behalf of a group of sustainability-minded people who live and work in Mountain View.

England's group has been following the project since last fall and is primarily concerned about the impact of a new drive-thru on the city. The 4,200-square-foot eatery would replace a Sizzler.
