Raley’s, the Northern Californian grocery chain, got one step closer to its vision to build a neighborhood “hub” in Sacramento.
According to a report in the
Sacramento Bee, the city’s Planning and Design Commission voted 12-to-1 to approve the chain’s plans for “The Park,” a 108,000-sq.-ft. open-air center ringed by a metal canopy and featuring large store windows and shrub-filled “green screens.”
“The goal is to create a hub for neighbors to meet and shop,” Raley’s representative Mike Maffia told the Commission prior to last week’s vote.
The center, to be anchored by a 55,000-sq.-ft Raley’s store, needs approval from the state capital’s City Council before construction can begin next year.
