A municipality, such as a city, town, village, or borough, is a political subdivision of a state within which a municipal corporation has been limiting fast-food places in the area, council members say they want to respect residents' wishes to encourage other types of restaurants over fast-food chains. Mayor Jef Vander Borght said he visited one of the five California Chicken Cafes - the one in Encino - to learn more about the local chain that wants to open a 142-seat outlet at 2921 Magnolia Blvd. ``For me, the biggest question is: Is this a fast-food restaurant, or is it not a fast-food restaurant?'' Vander Borght said. ``What I saw is that it is fast-food. But I'm willing to get more information and listen to the neighbors, and then we're going to have to make a real tough decision,'' he said. Residents in Magnolia Park have told city officials that they want more restaurants within walking distance. But one of the residents, arguing that a California Chicken Cafe would be bad for the neighborhood, has appealed the Planning Board's decision to allow one in the former Empire Furniture store.

Andre de Montesquiou, president of California Chicken Cafe, has tallied up the similarities and differences between his business and the typical fast-food restaurant. ``We concluded (that) we would be a place where you could go on a second or a third date,'' de Montesquiou said. ``You wouldn't take someone to McDonald's on a second or a third date, but you could go to our place.''
