BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
On April 13, 2021, the Planning and Zoning Commission made a recommendation to the City Council for an ordinance providing for a new use and definition for a “Brewery” to be allowed by Special Use Permit in Light Industrial, Heavy Industrial and Community Commercial Districts.
On April 20, 2021, City Council approved the ordinance and during its deliberation requested that staff bring back an ordinance for a “Brewery”.
The City Attorney prepared an ordinance, in response, to allow the brewery use in the Community Commercial (CC), Light Industrial (LI) and Heavy Industrial (HI) with a Special Use Permit (SUP).
The “Permitted Use Table,” will be amended to read as follows:
