Attorney

Obtain conditions and overlay rules affecting liquor store zoning request

Applies if: Reader represents the applicant, the owner, or a nearby party

Why now: The request keeps the MLOD-3, MLR-2 and AHOD overlays while adding a conditional use for a liquor store, and staff recommends Denial in case Z-2025-10700324.

What to do: Pull the staff report and any proposed conditions to determine whether the Martindale Army Air Field lighting overlay or the Airport Hazard Overlay District restrict the proposed liquor store use or its signage and lighting. Frame this as a question to confirm before advising any client on a path forward against the denial recommendation.

Act before: After the next material record update

Request staff denial rationale for East Houston Street liquor store zoning

Why now: Staff recommends Denial of the C-1 CD request for a liquor store at 2353 East Houston Street (Z-2025-10700324), and the record names the planner (Jewel Polimis) but not the reasons or the applicant.

What to do: Obtain the Development Services staff report explaining why denial is recommended for the liquor store conditional use, and identify who the applicant and property owner are. The stated reasons will show whether the objection concerns the site's overlay districts, nearby uses, or the use itself.

Act before: After the requested records are produced
