Full Breakdown

The city's Permitted Use Table (printed with Code of Ordinances Section 110-318) lists 'Tattoo Shops' as a conditional use in the C-1 Retail Commercial district, a permitted-by-right use in C-2 General Commercial, C-3 Heavy Commercial, and I Industrial, and a conditional use again in the CPUD and MPUD planned-unit-development categories. The table leaves the use blank, meaning not allowed, in every residential classification (RP, P, A, RE-5, RE-1, R1 through R1-B, R-2, RM-1, RM-2, MH), plus OR, PB, RPUD, and IPUD. Florida licenses individual tattoo artists through the state health department; the city's role is strictly where a shop may locate.

Violations & Fines

Opening a tattoo shop in a district where it isn't listed as permitted or conditional is a zoning code violation subject to a cease-and-desist order and code enforcement fines.
