Summary & Background

The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for an Event Center in the PUD zoning district. The proposed use will be an Event Center called Werthwhile Events.

The owner proposes four employees and a capacity for 50-80 patrons within the existing 1,740 Sf. building. The proposed hours of operation will be seven days a week from 8:00 am to 10:00 pm. The site is historically known to the community as the former, Werthwhile Inn Tavern, which operated from 1933-2023. The property was annexed from Adams County in 1961.

The subject property currently contains an existing 1,740 sq. ft. commercial building built in 1933. The property to the north is the intersection of Highway 2 and Magnolia Street right-of-way. The property to the south is the U.S. Post Office. The properties to the west are a service garage and a commercial storefront property. There are two access points on the site, a right in/right out on Highway 2 and a full movement on Magnolia Street.
