In an effort to attract more restaurants and eateries to Greenwood, the city established a riverfront district that allows for more liquor licenses. The riverfront district covers most developed areas in the city, including all of downtown and Greenwood Park Mall.
If you are applying for a Restaurant or Retail Food Establishment Permit, you should also contact the Johnson County Health Department to find out what they will require for your project.
