Sale and feed stables.

Atlanta City Code § 18-38

in effect

Sec. 18-38. - Sale and feed stables. (a) Petition required. Sale and feed stables may be operated only in sections of the city zoned for industrial uses. Any person desiring to open, operate or maintain a sale or feed stable in any section of the city shall first file a petition with the department of police for a license or permission to open and operate the stable. The petition shall distinctly and fully describe the lot or house at or in which the stable is to be located, giving its number, if any, or if no number the names of the owners of adjoining property. The petition shall not be entertained by the department of police unless it bears the written consent and approval of the owners of a majority of the real estate lying within a radius of 150 feet of the location, measuring in all directions. (b) Action on petition. The petition, when filed as provided in subsection (a) of this section, shall be referred to the license review board for action, and no action shall be taken by the mayor until it is returned thereto by the board with its approval. When so approved and returned, the petition shall be considered by the mayor and if, in the mayor's judgment, the location of the stable will not be injurious to persons living in the neighborhood or amount to a nuisance or discomfort, the mayor shall grant the applicant permission to open, operate and maintain the stable. Without that sanction, neither the chief financial officer nor any other officer shall issue a permit or license therefor. (Code 1977, § 14-4008)
