summary
Summary Explanation/Background:
The proposed revision is to add the Downtown Pompano Overlay District as an area where separation requirements for a bar, lounge, brewpub, restaurant, or specialty eating establishment would not apply. The rationale for this proposed revision is the same for the exemption in the AOD and the EOD. The city seeks to encourage the redevelopment and commercial activation of the district. The current frequency of places of worship in the Downtown create a situation where no bar would be able to open within much of the downtown, unless otherwise exempt from these separation requirements. The Planning and Zoning Board unanimously recommended approval on June 26, 2024.
Origin of request for this action: Development Services
Fiscal impact and source of funding: N/A
