Ryan writes in with this report…

Thought I would send this bit of news along. I noticed a “Now Open” sign in front of the Corrina’s Corner pet store on West College and Mead. I popped in to check it out. It apparently opened today and the yoga studio next door is now open, too. This is the same yoga studio that was behind Avellinos.

Anyway, read on here that Corrina’s Corner would be a fresh dog food deli. There was a freezer with a lot of raw and cooked fresh dog and cat food. One product that sounded intriguing were these little plastic condiment containers of raw mix to pour on top of dry pet food. But I also noticed a rawhide bar with things like pig ears, bully sticks, bones, rawhides, etc. There were other types of dry dog food that I hadn’t seen before, but they were not traditional big bags of food. Lots of treats and health supplements. There were big 30-40lb bags of organic chicken feed for the backyard chicken people in the neighborhood. Leashes, collars, toys, etc. He had cat litter, catnip, cat toys. Lots of animal shampoos and grooming supplies. And in the back there was a self-service dog wash.

Worth checking out. My dog will like the rawhide bar and we might test the raw food supplement. And I have a couple neighbors and friends that will like the chicken feed!

Last night, the Decatur City Commission approved all 8 zoning ordinance changes.

Here they are, with the votes in parenthesis – C2 next to R60 transitional standards (4-1, Commissioner Boykin dissented), Standards for downtown multiple dwellings (4-1, Commissioner Boykin dissented), Parking ordinance changes (5-0), “Special pedestrian area” expansion (5-0), Accessory dwelling units (5-0), Home based businesses (5-0), Light manufacturing (5-0) and Gardens and Livestock (5-0).

This has been a long and very involved process.  Thanks to all Decatur residents who served on the Zoning Task Force for all their hardwork.
