Seafood City Supermarket seeks approval for a Series 6 Bar Liquor License and Entertainment Use Permit to allow live indoor entertainment (DJ, karaoke, cultural performances, etc.) in conjunction with a 300-seat food hall and 1,920 sq ft social hall. The establishment will operate with events primarily Friday-Saturday evenings 9 pm–12 am with alcohol service. Planning staff finds the uses compatible with surrounding commercial land uses and recommends approval subject to standard conditions.
35-200 — text_amendment
This case involves amendments to Section 35-200 of the Chandler zoning ordinance regarding entertainment use permits for establishments serving alcoholic beverages with live entertainment or outdoor speakers. The changes establish new thresholds for when entertainment use permits are required based on distance from residentially zoned properties and create exemptions for ambient music speakers. Developers with hospitality or dining projects in Chandler should monitor this case as the new standards will affect permitting requirements for venues with entertainment or outdoor seating with speakers.
PLH26-0030 — text_amendment
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.
26-021 — text_amendment
The City is amending zoning code Section 35-305(4) to clarify that external speakers in outdoor seating areas no longer trigger Entertainment Use Permit requirements when no actual entertainment activity is provided. This change affects any commercial property with outdoor seating that may have speakers installed, potentially reducing permit requirements for affected businesses.
PLH26-0034 — Series 6 Bar Liquor License and live indoor entertainment
Seafood City is seeking approval for a Series 6 Bar Liquor License and Entertainment Use Permit to operate live indoor entertainment at their location in Chandler Fashion Center. The Planning and Zoning Commission is recommending approval subject to staff-recommended conditions, which may affect retail and entertainment tenants operating in this commercial center.
35-305 — text_amendment
This text amendment modifies the Entertainment Use Permit requirements in Chapter 35 by removing the requirement for external speakers in outdoor seating areas to trigger an EUP when no entertainment activity is provided. Developers with outdoor seating and audio systems should monitor this change as it may reduce permitting requirements for certain commercial uses like Seafood City.

68-074 — Vehicle Storage
This case involves a 0.82-acre site development for vehicle storage use, including site plan improvements such as pavement, lighting, fencing, and a CMU block wall. The project appears to be a site plan review with design elements rather than a zoning district change, making it relevant to developers working on similar storage or industrial projects.
99-0079 — Expansion of wholesale auto storage (vehicle inventory storage)
This Use Permit application seeks approval for vehicle inventory storage on four parcels within an existing industrial parent parcel operated by Adesa/Carvana. The proposed use is compatible with surrounding industrial operations, includes 6-foot perimeter screening, and will have no impact on residential areas, schools, or utilities. Access is internal to the parent parcel with no direct connection to public streets.
68-005H — Vehicle inventory storage on four vacant parcels
This specific use permit application is for vehicle inventory storage on four vacant parcels adjacent to an auto auction parent parcel with approved use permits dating back to 1986. While no wholesale, repair, detailing, or customization activities are planned for these parcels, staff is requiring the use permit due to the site history and relationship to the parent parcel where these accessory operations are already approved and occurring. Developers should note this case if involved in commercial auto or vehicle storage operations in the area.
26-018 — Wholesale auto storage expansion
Carvana is seeking approval to expand wholesale auto storage operations onto four additional contiguous parcels (2.33 net acres total) adjacent to their existing ~70-acre site in the Planned Industrial (I-1) district.

This renewal addresses an established use with a demonstrated track record of compatibility with surrounding commercial and residential properties.
26-017 — Continuation of dog daycare with outdoor play area
This is a use permit time extension for an existing dog daycare facility (Dogtopia of South Chandler) to continue operating an outdoor dog play area. The facility has operated successfully since 2019 with no noise complaints or police calls, and staff recommends approval. The approval would remove time limits and allow indefinite continued operation, so this case matters only if you have interests in the commercial property, adjacent residential areas, or are competing in the dog daycare market.
