This prohibition applies to operations within 300 feet from a pump or other dispensing mechanism, but it does not extend to adjacent properties regardless of their distance. The ordinance also includes general amendments to the mentioned sections of the Zoning Code related to commercial and industrial use categories and planned unit developments, aligning them with this new prohibition. The ordinance was enacted on April 8, 2025, with an effective date of April 18, 2025.
