Proposed Review and Approval Process for Businesses that Sell or Serve Alcohol 
A Zoning Code Amendment is proposed that would create a review and approval process for businesses that sell or serve alcoholic beverages.  This amendment, if adopted, would require an administrative approval for any new restaurant or similar establishment that serves alcoholic beverages, and a conditional use permit for any liquor store, bar, small food market, or retail establishment dedicated to the sale of alcoholic beverages.  Existing businesses that have appropriate licensing for the sale or serving of alcoholic beverages will be exempt from these regulations.  Learn more about the Alcohol Sales amendment.
