4. Conduct a public hearing on text amendment to the Official Zoning Ordinance adding to
Section 42 a definition for a liquor store and adding to Section 30 the land use of liquor
store with the status of permitted by right in the B-2 General Business District and I-1
Industrial District.
Public Hearing Opened.
No Public in Attendance.
Public Hearing Closed.
5. Consider, Discuss, and Possibly Act on text amendment to the Official Zoning Ordinance
adding to Section 42 a definition for a liquor store and adding to Section 30 the land use of
liquor store with the status of permitted by right in the B-2 General Business District and I-
1 Industrial District.
Following the 2012 election liquor is now allowed in the city limits; however, we do not
have a zoning ordinance to accommodate it. Joseph Iliff was hoping to put language into
our zoning ordinances that speak directly to the liquor ordinance and where they can be
located to remove any future clarification or questions. B2 and I1 seem to be the best fit
according to the alcohol ordinance that will be coming. So anyone wanting to put in a
liquor store in B2 and I1 will be ok within the zoning ordinance without having to get
rezoned.
Motion made to recommend the Official Zoning Ordinance adding to Section 42 a
definition for a liquor store and adding to Section 30 the land use of liquor store with the
status of permitted by right in the B-2 General Business District and I-1 Industrial District
to City Council by Sherri McCandless and seconded by Jerry Jenkins. Request passed
unanimously.
6. Meeting Adjourned.
