Memo- Second Reading for Ordinance 2011-1031MEMO
To: City Council
From: Nancy Anderson
Date: July 14, 2011
Subject: Second Reading for Ordinance 2011-1031
Attached is Ordinance 2011-1031 for second reading. This ordinance will add a mixed
use zoning district.
Council member Youakim asked to review the differences between the Blake and
Downtown areas. In looking at the uses, there are six uses that are in the downtown
and not in the Blake area. The uses are:
• bar/tavern
• art gallery
• glassware, china, pottery
• music store
• photography — studio
• picture framing — art shop
Five of the above uses, staff feels, are destination uses and should be located in the
downtown area. Staff would add a bar/tavern use in the Blake Road area. The
ordinance attached reflects this change. Of course, the bar/tavern would also have to
meet the requirements for a liquor license.
The City Council's action is to approve the ordinance for second reading and order it
published.
