Planning commission approves Cultivate Frozen Yogurt on Union Street
Summary
The commission approved a conditional use for Cultivate Frozen Yogurt at 1998 Union Street, a self‑service specialty food use, after neighborhood merchants and the Union Street Association expressed support.
The Planning Commission unanimously approved a conditional use permit for Cultivate Frozen Yogurt at 1998 Union Street on a consent-calendar vote.
