Analysis: These uses are permitted in MIC /L and MIC /H. They do not directly support <br /> industrial development or activity. However, we draw the distinction between tavern <br /> and nightclub regarding their respective appropriateness in the MIC. <br /> Tavern is a customary use providing workers in the immediate employment area, with <br /> the ability to enjoy a social opportunity after work. Nightclubs, however, are more <br /> oriented toward specialized nighttime entertainment. Customarily nightclub patrons <br /> leave their workplace, and come to the nightclub after dinner and a change of clothing <br /> for an evening's entertainment. Further, as a more specialized venue for evening <br /> entertainment, nightclubs typically draw their patrons are from a larger area than the <br /> immediate vicinity of the workplace. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Delete "nightclubs" from Permitted Uses in MIC /L and MIC /H <br /> Discussion of Accessory Uses <br /> Staff reviewed Accessory Uses, 18.36.030 and 18.38.030, which are appurtenant and <br /> incidental to permitted uses in the MIC /L and MIC /H districts and have the following <br /> findings. <br /> Billiard or Pool Rooms (TMC 18.36.030.1 and TMC 18.38.030.1) <br /> Analysis: This is a specialized entertainment use that does not directly support <br /> industrial development. <br /> Recommendation: <br /> Delete billiard or pool rooms from Accessory Uses in MIC /L and MIC /H <br /> Dormitory as an accessory use to other uses that are otherwise permitted or <br /> approved conditional uses such as Universities, Colleges or Schools (TMC 18.36.030.2 <br /> and TMC 18.38.030.2) <br /> Analysis: Dormitories are currently allowed as accessory uses to colleges and <br /> universities.
