Village staff proposed creating a new zoning use called “Social and Community Space” for places meant for community gatherings such as book clubs, creative workshops, and similar activities. Committee members said the idea could help fill empty commercial spaces and support revitalization, but they raised questions about parking, hours, outdoor use, liquor service, nuisance issues, and how the business model would work. Staff was asked to return with answers and a revised recommendation. No final decision was made.
