SUP Applicationsite_specificNotableCITY COUNCIL, Zoning Commission
A citywide change to the zoning ordinance was proposed to add "Credit Access Business" as a new use, remove "Liquor or Package Stores" as a permitted use in certain commercial and form-based districts, and set distance requirements between similar businesses such as retail smoke shops, liquor or package stores, and credit access businesses. It also proposed longer distances between retail smoke shops and certain sensitive uses, added more sensitive uses, and updated definitions including "Retail Smoke Shop," "Restaurant," and "Bar." The Zoning Commission recommended denial, and the matter went inactive after a City Council hearing without a final decision.
