Analysis
Presently, the zoning code provides that no special use permit for a currency exchange, payday loan agency, title loan agency, cash-for-gold business or pawn shop shall be granted by the board of zoning appeals unless the board finds, in addition to the general required findings for all special uses, that:
a. No other currency exchange, payday loan agency, title loan agency, cash-for-gold business or pawn shop is located within 1,500 feet of the proposed use.
b. The proposed use will not be located within 150 feet of a single-family or 2-family residential zoning district.
This ordinance adds installment loan agency to the list of businesses subject to these additional special use standards.
