Pool grading permit and Maison Nico's beer/wine license go before Planning Commission

The Planning Commission's Monday agenda carried two property-specific hearings and nothing else of substance — no business items, and the meeting adjourns straight to October 19.

At 50 Mariposa Avenue, commissioners considered a grading permit (Project No. PRO2026-0039, APN 007-284-50) for a swimming pool and the site work that comes with it — retaining walls, drainage, grading cuts, the usual footprint of a backyard pool project.

At 121 Tunstead Avenue, the commission weighed a conditional use permit (Project No. PRO2026-0037, APN 007-251-39) that would let Maison Nico sell beer and wine off-premises alongside its existing bakery/café, pastry production, and ice cream operations — essentially adding bottle and six-pack sales to the counter.

Neither the staff recommendation nor the commission's vote was captured in the posted record, so it's not yet clear whether either item passed as proposed. The full meeting video is linked below for anyone who wants the details firsthand.
