Planning Commission recommends the one-client nail salon permit, with conditions
Passed 2–1
Michelle Maldonado asked for a conditional use permit for a one-client-at-a-time home nail salon at 411 2nd Ave West. Neighbors objected. A first motion, to not recommend the permit, died without a second; the commission then voted to recommend approval with conditions, including appointments done by 3:00 p.m. and a delineated client parking space. The commission recommends; the City Council decides.
How they voted
- Michael Garry Aye Moved to recommend approval
- Anton Moody Aye Seconded
- Ben Peters Nay
