Summary
On second reading and after a public hearing with no public opposition, the council approved a conditional use permit allowing a bar/lounge at 1205 Main Street (Property ID 54143).
The Commerce City Council on Jan. 20 approved a conditional use permit on second reading to allow a bar/lounge at 1205 Main Street in the corridor district. Staff explained that the corridor district allows many retail and commercial uses and that a bar/tavern is a permitted conditional use where the council may place conditions to ensure compatibility with surrounding uses. Staff said the request follows the required public-notice process and recommended approval. The public hearing was opened and closed with no public comments. Council voted to approve the permit on second reading.
Staff noted the location has historically hosted bars and the application reflects a change in ownership and a new name for the operation. The transcript references an applicant name (Mr. Okonkra) and uses the business name "Bardi Club" in one passage; staff recommended approval with council action completing the second reading.
Next steps: planning staff will record and issue the conditional use permit and notify the applicant of permit conditions and any compliance requirements.
