Community Development Director
DATE: April 20, 2005
BACKGROUND: This request seeks approval of a Use-by-Exception to allow for the on-premise consumption of Alcoholic Beverages in association with a restaurant and pub in an existing
commercial space. The space was formerly occupied by the Six-Burner Restaurant, which had a beer and wine (2-COP) license. In accordance with revisions to Chapter 3 (Alcoholic Beverages)
of the City Code that were made last year, a Use-by-Exception is required to expand to full Alcoholic Beverage service. Staff has no objection to this request, in that on-premise consumption
of Alcoholic Beverages is typical to the proposed restaurant / pub use, and the use is consistent with other restaurant and retail uses in the general area.
The Community Development Board considered this request at their April 19th meeting and unanimously recommended approval.
BUDGET: No budget issues.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval to Culhane’s Irish Pub of a Use-by-Exception (File Number UBE-2005-06, to allow for on-premise consumption of Alcoholic Beverages (4-COP DABT license) in association
with a restaurant and pub – Culhane’s Irish Pub – within the Commercial General (CG) Zoning District at 967 Atlantic Boulevard within the Atlantic Village Shopping Center.
