Some development is cooking again in Pleasant Prairie with the village Plan Commission’s approval last month of a new Olive Garden restaurant.

Owner Darden Restaurants’ recipe for the eatery included a 7,440 square foot building, seating for 246 and parking for 145 on 2.2 acres. Construction of the Tuscan-themed facility could begin within six months in the Prairie Ridge site, on 77th Street west of Famous Dave’s. No completion date was discussed, but officials said such work typically requires about 120 days.

Owners plan on hiring up to 80 people.
