Agenda Item Summary:
Pursuant to SDCL 21-10-32, the City of Rapid City is allowed to regulate the location and construction of indoor shooting range establishments within the City. The proposed Ordinance before you is intended to balance the varied interests and lessen any potentially deleterious effects on neighboring properties for what will be a new use of property within the City of Rapid City. The Zoning Ordinance currently allows firearm and ammunition retail sales, in the following zoning districts: Central Business District, Urban Commercial District, General Commercial District, Light Industrial District, Heavy Industrial District and Shopping Center I and II District(s). Allowing an indoor shooting range as a permitted use within the General Commercial, Light Industrial and Public Zoning Districts is in keeping with the intent of the Ordinance
