Background Information:
This space consists of approximately 600 square feet that was most recently an optometrist’s office. Medical Office is a “permitted by right” use allowed within the Neighborhood Commercial District. Before operating as an optometrist’s office, various retail uses occupied this location. Retail uses require a CUP within the Neighborhood Commercial District.
The applicant has moved into the space and is currently open for the purpose of repairing wooden instruments (an allowed use), but would like sell musical instruments and parts as well (requires a CUP).
In this case, the primary reason that a CUP is required is because an allowed use (medical office) operated within this suite between retail uses. Had this suite transitioned between two similar retail uses (within 6 months) the retail use would have been grandfathered.
The proposed hours of operation for this business are as follows:
Tuesday - Friday: 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Saturday: 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
