3 DISCUSS ALCOHOL-RELATED USES AND RELATED ZONING
STANDARDS.
Principal Planner Clayton Husband presented the work session item on alcohol uses
and proposed updates to the Code of Ordinances, and asked for questions from the
Commission.
Vice Chairman Jerry Tyner asked Mr. Husband if a winery would be allowed to have
taste testing, which would be on-premise consumption of alcohol. Mr. Husband stated
the code would allow for tasting rooms under certain conditions.
Mr. Comstock presented information from the Texas Alcohol Beverage Code related
to fees.
Mr. Comstock asked the Commission how certain alcohol-related uses should be
permitted on the land use table. Chairman Justin Welborn stated he was comfortable
with requiring Special Use Permits for Specialty Alcohol Establishments in the
Historic TOD and TOD Core character zones and stated this use could be a catalyst
for those character zones. Vice Chairman Tyner asked if the 500-foot separation
between businesses would apply to Specialty Alcohol Establishments. Mr. Comstock
stated no, that is not part of the current proposal. Commissioner Mason Orr stated he
felt comfortable with the proposal and Chairman Welborn's comments. Mr. Comstock
asked if the use should be allowed by right. Chairman Welborn stated the uses
should be allowed by Special Use Permit and that requiring the Special Use Permit
would serve as enough protection to keep the same uses from being adjacent to each
other. Commissioner Don Bowen stated he agreed with Chairman Welborn.
Mr. Comstock outlined the remaining schedule for the alcohol-related uses proposal.
