Barber-shop change of ownership proposed at Bakers Ferry shopping center; applicant seeks special‑use permit
Summary
Xavier Young applied for a special‑use permit to run an eight‑chair barber shop in an existing storefront at 6035 Bakers Ferry Road; he said the business has operated in the location for about 15–19 years and he does not plan structural changes.
Xavier Young requested a special‑use permit (U‑26‑008) to operate a barber shop at 6035 Bakers Ferry Road, Suite 270, in Council District 1. Young said the space has been a barber shop for approximately 15–19 years and that his application is effectively a change of ownership; he does not plan structural or plumbing changes and intends to operate an eight‑chair barber shop to continue serving the community.
A staff member and meeting participants noted that other barber shops or similar services are located within 2–4 miles; staff confirmed the prior operation history and the applicant characterized the request as routine change‑of‑ownership rather than a new use. No objections were recorded during the information meeting.
The application will proceed through the normal special‑use review process; the Planning Commission and Mayor and Council hearing dates for this rezoning/SUP cycle were announced during the meeting.
