What Do Taxicabs, Corporate Coffee And Massages All Have In Common?

Posted on by

The city leaders all made decisions on them, showing that they are capable of showing a little backbone. Now if someone wanted to open a taxi stand that served coffee while you wait for a massage – well…

Steve Cardinalli of Yellow Cab said he supports a joint powers agency but isn’t comfortable with having MST administer it.

In other action, the council voted 5-0 to allow Safeway to open a Starbucks kiosk inside its store at 1212 Forest Ave.

The change will relieve the city Police Department from the duty of processing licenses and certifications of massage providers, since the state will be the certifying authority, said Police Chief Darius Engles.

Update!
Them Internets got an answer for everything! Here’s a coffee mug with a logo from a cab company that has massage tables in it’s rides..

Canturbury WoodsAhh, nothing we like doing more in PG than litigating.

 

Carol Hart, Phyllis Burkey, Madeleine Litlefield and William and Alice Englander, who are joining in the suit, live in the units.

Spradling found Canterbury Woods violated the area’s single-family residential zoning by introducing a commercial use in the neighborhood when it expanded beyond the property where the main retirement complex is located.

He didn’t find the retirement home in violation of its city use permit.

Much easier to read than on a heavy laptop and does not get ink on your fingers. No need to clip articles with the online archive of past issues.

From the weekly email announcing the Pine Cone’s highlights:

If you’re picking up a new iPad this weekend, be sure to check out the pdf edition of the Pine Cone on it. We think you’ll be impressed.

A Starbucks In Safeway Is Fast Food?

Posted on by

The Safeway up on Forest Hill did remodel a few years back. I could not tell the difference, the place is still cramped and hard to shop in

Anyway, they do have a deli where prepared take-out food is sold, so what’s the big deal? At least they are not trying to sell tacos.

Safeway wants to remodel its store to include a Starbucks, but the city has had a law on the books limiting “fast-food” businesses since 1980.

On Wednesday, the Pacific Grove City Council will consider whether a coffee bar within the store constitutes a “fast-food” business or is an integral part of the store itself.
