The Walworth Planning Board approved plans for an ice cream shop on Walworth-Penfield Road and a revision removing battery storage from a previously approved solar project during its Sept. 14 meeting.
The board granted Daniel Shade a special-use permit for an ice cream shop combined with an existing antique store at 647 Walworth-Penfield Road. The property is in Wayne County’s Hamlet District and has a Macedon mailing address.
