NEW ALCOHOL OVERLAY DISTRICTS ADOPTED FOR THE 3RD DISTRICT
The City of Savannah established alcohol density overlay districts within the 3rd District. An alcohol density overlay district recognizes the concentration of establishments engaging in alcohol sales in certain areas of the City has contributed to undesirable activity. An alcohol density overlay district designation establishes standards to curtail or prevent these and other detrimental actions from diminishing property values and the quality of life for nearby residents and property owners.
