CHAPTER 18

103 - :HR HISTORIC RESTAURANT COMBINATION DISTRICT

18.103.010 - Intent of Classification.

The:HR combination district classification in intended to be applied to any parcel used for a restaurant existing on April 22, 1998, which was lawfully used for a restaurant with at least two hundred seats on November 5, 1985, regardless of whether the parcel was used continuously for a restaurant after that date. The two hundred seats allowed without a use permit pursuant to this classification may be located indoors or outdoors, in any room or area of any existing structure or any existing outdoor patio area on the parcel. In order to safeguard against environmental impacts which exceed those which historically existed on a parcel subject to the:HR combination district, the classification does not permit any expansion in structures, parking lots or outdoor patio areas over those existing on April 22, 1998, unless authorized by a use permit issued pursuant to this title.
