Location: <br />A taproom/cocktail room (or liquor store) cannot be on a property within 500’ of a school <br />or church property (City Code 502.04, Subd 2(b). Exception; an establishment in which <br />60% or more of its revenue is from food, can be within 500’ (e.g. brewpub, or other <br />restaurant). The 500’ setback would prohibit a taproom from locating on a number of <br />properties, including: <br /> <br />Mounds View Square <br />Snyder’s building <br />Movie Theater & adjacent (Subway) strip mall <br />Cars Bike Shop building <br />Portions of Mounds View North & South industrial park <br /> <br />The intent of the 500’ setback is to provide a distance between non-compatible uses. <br />The Council may want to consider if this distance should be reconsidered (i.e. what is <br />the correlation between schools/churches and age-appropriate businesses). <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />The City Council is requested to discuss and provide Staff with direction. Staff will bring <br />forward an Ordinance Amendment for consideration at the August 8th Council meeting. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br />________________________ <br />Jon Sevald, AICP <br />Planner <br /> <br />Attachments <br />Map of 500’ buffer around schools and churches
