Cary expands downtown social district, allows public alcohol consumption in defined plaza area
Summary
The board approved amendments to village code to open the downtown social district (including Depot Plaza) to public alcohol consumption in defined areas as part of a continuing program tied to the new Depot Plaza opening this spring.
The Village of Cary board voted March 3 to amend municipal code provisions to permit public consumption of alcohol in defined areas of the downtown social district, including the upcoming Depot Plaza.
Staff said the community Depot Plaza is scheduled to open this spring and that the downtown social district is now open to the public as of March 1. The proposed ordinance updates chapters 5.08 and 9.12 to make public consumption allowable in mapped areas; staff described the change as a continuation of prior years’ practice and provided a map of the included streets and plaza footprint.
Trustees asked no substantive questions during the presentation and the ordinance passed on a roll call vote.
