Granville County Land Development Code Text Amendment Petition
AMENDMENT TO THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE (LDC) THAT WOULD ESTABLISH THAT THE ALCOHOL, SALES OR WITH RESTAURANT LAND USE MAY ONLY HAVE OFF-PREMISE ABC PERMITS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD BUSINESS ZONING DISTRICT (NB). THE AMENDMENT WOULD ALSO REMOVE THE DISTANCE PROHIBITION REQUIREMENT FOR SELLING UNPACKAGED ALCOHOL IN THE NB ZONING DISTRICT WHEN LOCATED WITHIN 300 FEET FROM CHURCHES, CHILD CARE CENTERS AND PUBLIC OR PRIVATE SCHOOLS AS THE OFF-PREMISE ABC PERMIT ONLY REQUIREMENT FOR NB ZONED PROPERTIES WOULD MAKE THE DISTANCE REQUIREMENT MOOT. THE AMENDMENT WOULD ALSO CHANGE THE LAND USE FROM A LIMITED LAND USE TO A PERMITTED LAND USE IN THE PRIME INDUSTRIAL ZONING DISTRICT (1-1) AND GENERAL INDUSTRIAL ZONING DISTRICT (I-2).
