Jones County approves allowing distilled‑alcohol package sales as conditional use in C‑2 district
Summary
The Board approved a planning request to add a new CLDR section to permit distilled‑alcohol package sales as a conditional use in the C‑2 commercial district after a planning commission recommendation to approve.
The Jones County Board of Commissioners voted Sept. 1 to approve a planning code change that would allow distilled‑alcohol package sales as a conditional use in the C‑2 commercial district.
Planning staff introduced item P‑1, saying the request would add a new section 73.23.10 to the CLDR to permit distilled‑alcohol package sales in the C‑2 district; staff reported the planning commission recommended approval. After the chair asked whether anyone opposed and the board heard no opposition, a motion to approve P‑1 was made, seconded and carried with the board responding 'Aye.'
Why it matters: The change creates a conditional‑use pathway for distilled‑alcohol package sales in commercial zones, which will require future applicants to satisfy conditions set by the county when they apply. The planning commission’s recommendation and the board’s approval move the code amendment forward as the county continues to review alcohol and land‑use rules.
