Taboo Bar & Grill gets six‑month conditional use permit; council cites resolved noise issues
Summary
Council granted a new six‑month conditional use permit to Taboo Bar & Grill after its prior permit lapsed; staff and Planning & Zoning added conditions including five security officers while open and monitoring of police calls.
The City Council approved a six‑month conditional use permit Monday for Taboo Bar & Grill on Cherry Road after the business let its previous permit lapse.
Planning staff said the bar’s earlier CUP expired and the applicant sought a renewal; staff recommended a six‑month term and Planning & Zoning added a condition requiring five security officers at all times while the bar is open. Staff noted there had been eight minor police calls since September of last year and that noise complaints in the past appear to have been addressed. The applicant confirmed he currently staffs five security officers.
Nut graf: Because the prior CUP had lapsed, staff recommended a shorter, six‑month term as a monitoring period; if police calls remain minimal during that period staff will consider recommending a one‑year renewal.
Council and staff discussed the lapse and the possibility of imposing a late fee or a revised process to reduce future lapses; staff said similar lapses have occurred with other applicants and suggested the city could consider penalties such as higher renewal fees.
Ending: Council approved the six‑month CUP with the condition of five security officers; staff will monitor police calls and may recommend a one‑year permit in the future if issues remain minimal.
