Council approves conditional use for nail salon at 1896 Pops Ferry Road
Summary
Council approved a conditional-use permit allowing a nail salon at 1896 Pops Ferry Road after the applicant, building owner Donna Tindell, said the location had housed similar services in the past and councilors expressed support for filling a long-vacant tenant space.
Biloxi City Council voted on March 24 to grant a conditional-use permit to authorize a nail salon at 1896 Pops Ferry Road.
Donna Tindell, the building owner, addressed the city during citizens comments to note the property previously held similar businesses and that she seeks a tenant for the empty storefront. "There used to be a nails or hair salon there many years ago," Tindell said, asking the council to approve a conditional use that would allow a nail salon in the space.
On the policy agenda, Mr. Tisdale moved to grant the conditional use and Mr. Gray seconded. Councilors spoke in favor of placing a tenant in a building that has been vacant for some time. A verbal roll-call vote was taken; present council members recorded their votes in favor and the chair announced the motion carried.
The transcript shows the council handled the item as an individual policy agenda matter and then proceeded to the consent agenda and subsequent business. The council did not record detailed conditions attached to the permit in the portions of the transcript provided; staff or planning documents would include any standard conditions in the formal permit paperwork.
Next steps: the conditional use is approved; any permit conditions or building inspections will be handled through the city’s planning and permitting process.
