PLH26-0030 — Ordinance / Text Amendment in Chandler, AZ
This code amendment removes the requirement for an Entertainment Use Permit (EUP) when a business has outdoor speakers playing prerecorded music but provides no live entertainment. The change applies citywide and reduces permitting requirements for restaurants, retail, and hospitality businesses with outdoor patios or seating areas. This makes it easier for food and beverage establishments to add ambient music to outdoor spaces without triggering regulatory review.
