Novato Planning Commission approves downtown drive-thru

The Novato Planning Commission has approved a proposal to bring a two-tenant building with a restaurant drive-thru in the downtown area.

Steve Marshall, deputy director of community development, said the commission voted on Monday to support the project, including the drive-thru, an element that was not initially recommended by staff.

Marshall said the permit resolution will be modified to reflect the commission’s decision on the drive-thru and will be presented as a consent item at an upcoming meeting.
