‘Scooters of New Canaan’ Planned for Cross Street
|
The owners of a commercial property on Cross Street have applied to the town for permission to open a retail scooter business in a 1963-built service shop structure on the edge of a residential neighborhood. Santo Silverstro is planning to open the new shop—“Scooters of New Canaan,” according to a proposed sign—at 35 Cross St., a .24-acre parcel in the Business B zone. “The existing use of 35 Cross Street is a mechanical shop and related office space,” Silvestro wrote in the application filed on behalf of 35 Cross Street LLC, a limited liability company of which he and his wife, Lynda Silverstro, are principals.
“The proposed use of 35 Cross Street will be a mechanical shop and relayed office space, as well as a retail scooter shop and related office space. There will be no interior changes. The previous tenant was Enterprise Rental Car which occupied the space from 2006 to 2016.
