A new liquor store in Comox has taken a step closer to becoming a reality after Comox council approved third reading for a new commercial building.
Set for 692 Anderton Rd., the liquor store is to be located within the new building. The applicant, Ron Davis, proposes constructing a new six-unit commercial building. The liquor store is to accommodate a relocation of the existing liquor store currently located at 651 Anderton Rd.
According to a report from the town’s planning department at the April 3 council meeting, a zoning bylaw text amendment is required as the zone only permits a liquor store at its current location.
A public hearing was held on March 20, and third reading of the zoning amendment bylaw was passed unanimously.
