The Columbia Borough Planning Commission on Dec. 16 reviewed two zoning-hearing-bound variance requests: a proposed tattoo parlor at 475 Locust Street (the commission recommended support) and a proposed short-term rental at 515 Chestnut Street (the commission declined to make a recommendation). The meeting included public comment, a discussion about packet pickup, and announcements about upcoming reappointments and the Jan. 20, 2025 meeting.
