A new local business is looking to host car shows and charity events, sell cars and campers and run area kayak tours.
Village resident Bill Cacciolfi is turning the former Shattuck’s Garage auto repair site at Xenia Avenue and Brookside Drive into the Safari Place, with a variety of eclectic uses planned.
At its last regular meeting on April 13, Planning Commission unanimously approved a conditional use permit for the property.
In addition to approving car sales and shows and kayak rentals, the commission also gave a green light to mobile food trucks and retail sales of food and non-alcoholic beverages at the site.
