Conditional Use
Citizen Bar
Petition Number: PLNPCM2022-01035
Zoning District: R-MU (Residential/Mixed Use)
Council District: 4 – Ana Valdemoros
Salt Lake City has received a request from David Morris for a Conditional Use to operate a bar establishment at approximately 33 S. 300 E. The proposed 1,120 sq. ft. bar, called Citizen, will be located in the ground level of the Lotus Republic apartment complex, which is currently under construction.
The property is in the R-MU Residential/Mixed Use zoning district, which requires a Conditional Use process for a Bar Establishment. The Conditional Use process looks at compatibility, location, configuration, and potential impacts of the request.
