Body

Description/Background:

On April 29, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution #25-16C pertaining to brewpubs. A brewpub is a restaurant with brewery that sells beer and heavy beer for on-site consumption.

 

The resolution directed city staff to evaluate opportunities for streamlining the permitting process, lowering the regulatory and financial barriers to entry and expanding locations where brewpubs could be permitted in Sandy City. To address these goals, the Community Development Department has conducted an evaluation and prepared this report with recommendations for the Council’s consideration.

 

Please refer to the staff memo and attachments for full details on this item.

 

Further action to be taken:

Proposed code amendments to the municipal code can be brought back to the City Council in the future.
