Again, thank you for the clarification. Very helpful. I feel better now,
hearing that a liquor license is not automatic.
And yes, you are correct, I believe the Parlor seels beer and not vodka.
Sorry for misleading anyone.
My intent is just to understand some of the details, and to encourage us as
a neighborhood to become informed before voting to change a permit.
Thanks to your explanations I feel much more clear now.

Alcohol sales is a "conditional use" that always requires prior
approval; i.e. even though the underlying CS zoning permits alcohol
sales in theory, a zoning change must be requested to sell alcohol.
Does this make sense? The zoning would just revert back to plain old CS
with no conditional use overlay.
BTW, is The Parlor allowed to sell liquor, or just beer and wine? I
thought they only had a beer and wine license. Liquor is stuff like
whiskey, rum, and vodka. There's a huge difference between these 2 as
far as permitting/licensing goes. This is why I don't think there are
any businesses in the neighborhood selling liquor. Also, for businesses
which make more than 50% of their revenue from food sales (I think this
applies to the Parlor), the rules are again different from a business
which primarily sells alchohol, beer & wine, or liquor.
