| | | | | | | | ANALYSIS
| The attached Ordinance amends City Code Section 6-3, entitled “Hours of sale/violations,” to amend the hours for package sales of alcoholic beverages (which include sales of alcohol for off-premises consumption) in the following areas:
1. CD-3 districts, south of Collins Canal and Lake Pancoast;
2. CD-2 district, between Washington Avenue and Collins Avenue, from 17th Street to 20th Street; and
3. RM-3 district, east of Collins Avenue, from 16th Street to 21st Street.
As to the subject areas, the Ordinance changes the commencement time for package liquor sales from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., and changes the termination time for package liquor sales to from 12:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. The following are the existing package stores that would be required to comply with the new hours of operation, should the proposed Ordinance be adopted by the City Commission:
1. 7-ELEVEN - 350 Lincoln Road (Note this establishment is legal non-conforming, as convenience stores are now prohibited on Lincoln Road, between Collins Avenue and Alton Road);
2. I LOVE LIQUOR - 1632 Collins Avenue;
3. I LOVE LIQUOR - 1678 Collins Avenue; and
