Starbucks planned at Byer Center
The Development Review Committee on Aug. 13 unanimously approved the request of Paja Investments to allow a Starbucks coffeehouse at the new Byer Center building.
Starbucks was previously told it couldn't locate downtown, so the Seattle-based chain decided to try setting up shop in the well-known domed building at Blossom Hill Road and Los Gatos Boulevard.
No further steps to do so are required by the town.
Terrano de Flores gets zoning change

Coastal Cleanup
Litter in creeks parks and oceans isn't just ugly--it's deadly. Plastic bags and cigarette butts kill thousands of birds, fish and seals each year.
