STAFF COMMENTS: A site plan is included as part of attachment ‘C’ and ‘F’ of this report. All
improvements shown on that plan are existing on the ground. There are no
site changes proposed and there is no Site Plan review Summary.
The proposed “S-P-1” regulations are also included as part of Attachment
‘C’. The following change is needed to the regulations and should be made
a stipulation of any recommendation for approval:
Under “Permitted Uses” change “use #27” to “Taverns, clubs, and other
comparable establishments under which the on-premises consumption of
alcoholic beverages is permitted subject to issuance of a special use permit as
required in Section 45 of this ordinance. The mere reference to this provision
within the zoning ordinance does not indicate or imply that the sale or
consumption of alcoholic beverages has been or will be permitted under the
alcoholic beverage laws of the State of Texas. It is only intended to define a
location for this type of use if its existence should be permitted by state law.”
Also, add the following “This use shall be permitted only with the approval
of specific use permits under the provisions of Section 45 for both the
“tavern, club and other similar establishment” use and “sale of alcoholic
beverages.”
