BACKGROUND:

In an effort to improve pedestrian access in Community Commercial Zoning District (C-2), City Council adopted Ordinance No. 338 on May 27, 2015. This ordinance amended the Zoning Regulations by requiring a conditional use permit to allow outdoor sales and displays and only if the following conditions are met: 
  1. Products and services displayed outdoors are customary, accessory, and incidental to those sold and displayed in a primary business being conducted in a permanent building on the property. 
  2. Outdoor sales and displays do not interfere with pedestrian access ways, walk-ways, fire lanes, required parking spaces, driveways, landscape areas, or traffic visibility at driveway entries and street intersections.
  3. The combined outdoor sales and displays areas do not exceed ten percent (10%) of the business’s gross square footage. 
Since Ordinance No. 338 was adopted this is the first request submitted for a conditional use permit for outdoor sales and displays. The request is to allow electronics and clothes to be display outside Gomart, business located in the downtown area at 588 N. Main Street.
