Plan Commission OKs 5‑year SUP for Sweetness Sweets to offer body piercing (no tattooing)
Summary
The commission approved a five‑year specific‑use provision allowing Sweetness Sweets to offer body‑piercing services (tattooing prohibited) at 410 Town Center Boulevard, with the PD amendment to allow reduced separation applied only to this location.
The Garland Plan Commission approved a five‑year specific‑use provision June 8 allowing Sweetness Sweets to operate a body‑piercing studio at 410 Town Center Boulevard, Firewheel Town Center. Staff recommended limiting services to body piercing (no tattooing) and recommended a five‑year term for an interior tenant finish with no exterior site improvements.
Applicant Juanita Allen said the business has operated in the center for more than 10 years and asked for the SUP to formalize piercing services. Staff and commissioners clarified the PD amendment would be specific to this location, permitting a reduced separation from another piercing establishment (the measured distance was cited around 420 feet). Commissioner Paris moved to close the public hearing and adopt staff recommendations, which passed unanimously. Outcome: approved (unanimous).
