AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY

ITEM SUMMARY:

Consider a request to amend the Unified Development Code, of the City of Griffin, Article 2, Interpretations and Definitions to add, replace or modify definitions pursuant to the State Law for Consumer Fireworks, Consumer Fireworks Retail Sales Facility or Store and Consumer Firweworks Retail Sales Stand. Toussaint Kirk, Director of Planning & Development will address.




SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS OR CONCERNS:

As of April 26, 2016, Governor Deal signed a new law relating to the sale of consumer fireworks. The new law changes several key definitions in the law and will affect the provisions the City added to the UDC last year for both permanent stores and temporary fireworks stands. This text amendment will add definitions to our ordinance as outlined in the State Law.
