Title:

Introduce Ordinance #22-12 Amending City Code Section 117-124 to Allow Restaurants in the E-3 Employment District

Purpose/Background:

Research of peer communities has confirmed that restaurants are typically allowed in industrial districts via conditional use permit. These districts, similar to the E-3: Employment District in the City of Ramsey, include warehouses, and manufacturing of goods. 

The proposed amendment to City Code Section 117-124 would allow restaurants in the E-3: Employment District with a conditional use permit. Staff research affirms that the proposed ordinance amendment is consistent with allowed conditional and permitted uses in industrial districts.
