12. Ordinance No. 2026-19, Creative Playground: (First Reading/Public

City Council Meeting · 2026-04-28 · agenda_item

The City of Melbourne is reviewing a proposal to allow the sale and consumption of beer and wine as an accessory use to an interactive arts and crafts business. This would take place in a 1,654 square foot unit within a three-unit building on a 0.20-acre property located at 1416 Highland Avenue. The property is currently zoned C-3 (Central Business District). This item is currently under review, having had a first reading and public hearing. If approved, the project would involve interior build-out or renovation of the retail unit, potentially including plumbing for any service areas, electrical work for lighting and equipment, and finishing trades for the customer-facing space. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers should consider reaching out to the applicant or representative early in the process. Engaging before final site plans, bids, and permits are settled can provide an advantage in securing future work related to this commercial development.
