The proposed restaurant and bar zoning text amendments address restaurants, bars, outdoor bars, accessory use outdoor bars, nightclubs, rooftop bars, bottle clubs, microbreweries, private clubs, wineries, location of the bar counter, enclosed vs. enclose-able structure, intensity level, ghost kitchens, time of night, etc. ... How can these proposed ZTAs be easily enforced?
I thought the purpose of these ZTAs was to clarify and simplify the zoning for restaurants and bars? Only two categories are required, restaurants and bars, as follows:
If these proposed ZTAs result in a proliferation of bars downtown, is the city prepared to hire additional police officers, given that downtown crime and public safety would be directly impacted Has the Planning Department compared the proposed ZTAs to other cities', such as Orlando?
City Commission, pleased consider the simplification of these ZTAs that I’ve proposed above.
