§ 82-38.202. Purpose and administration.
This chapter requires and provides criteria for the consideration and approval of land use permits before a new alcoholic beverage sales commercial activity will be permitted in any land use zoning district of this county. This chapter further confers deemed approved status upon existing alcoholic beverage sales commercial activities. The county finds it necessary to establish land use permit requirements and criteria in the interest of the public health, safety and welfare to regulate alcoholic beverage sales commercial activities in the unincorporated area. This chapter alone does not allow or permit alcoholic beverage sales commercial activities, but only applies to these activities where otherwise allowed or permitted within an involved applicable land use zoning district. This chapter does not authorize alcoholic beverage sales commercial activities in any land use district where they are not otherwise allowed or permitted by the applicable involved zoning district's regulations.
