Require special permits for large retail stores and major developments
In Plain English
The city currently allows large retail stores and major developments to open without special review. This proposed law requires developers to get conditional use permits before building superstores or other major projects. If approved, the city gains more control over where large retailers locate and can review their impact on traffic and local businesses.
