Commission approves Sweet 100 convenience store at 520 South Saginaw Boulevard
Summary
The commission approved a specific-use permit for Sweet 100, a convenience store without fuel sales at 520 South Saginaw Boulevard. The applicant told commissioners tobacco and nicotine products will be limited to 10% of the sales floor; operating hours would be 6 a.m.–11 p.m. The meeting recorded no public opposition and no reply forms for the item.
The Saginaw Planning & Zoning Commission approved a specific-use permit allowing a convenience store (no fuel sales) at 520 South Saginaw Boulevard, suite 100, clearing the applicant to finalize site and building permits.
Staff noted the operation would be in the Community Commercial zone and within the Saginaw Boulevard overlay. The applicant disclosed that tobacco and nicotine products would occupy about 10% of the sales floor (below the threshold that triggers a tobacco-shop SUP), and said the intended hours are 6 a.m.–11 p.m. The staff packet included a floor plan and a rendering of proposed frontage and signage; the applicant said alcohol sales (beer and wine) are planned subject to applicable licensing.
The commission heard no public comments on the record for this item. Commissioners discussed local market competition and confirmed the packet was provided prior to the meeting; a motion to approve the SUP passed on a voice vote. The transcript records the motion passing but does not provide a roll-call tally.
City staff will process the usual civil, architectural and licensing steps before the store opens.
