Active <br /> ground-floor uses do not include personal services. <br /> Comments and Modifications during DSP Update <br /> The Task Force at its November 13, 2018, meeting questioned whether personal services <br /> (e.g., nail salons) should be added to the definition of"active." <br /> As part of the February 26, 2019, meeting, staff recommended to the Task Force to not <br /> include personal services as active uses; the Task Force concurred with this <br /> recommendation. The definition of"active uses" in the adopted DSP does not include <br /> personal services and the definition in the PMC specifically identifies personal services as <br /> not being active uses. <br /> LD-P.17, Active Ground Floor Use Requirements for Multi-Tenant Buildings <br /> Adopted DSP <br /> "For buildings that have multiple tenant spaces, apply the requirements of the Active <br /> Ground Floor Use Overlay to tenant spaces with frontage on Main Street, and certain <br /> streets within portions of the Mixed-Use-Downtown District"designated active streets." <br /> Exceptions to this requirement may be granted in accordance with LD-P.19." <br /> Adopted PMC <br /> 18.81.020 Applicability <br /> A.
