Angela’s Ice Cream Co-Owner: “There’s Something About This Place. There’s the Beauty, the Connection to the Larger Bay Area – People in this Region Vote with Their Dollars”

At the other end of that Throckmorton Ave. block, there’s also no doubt that another relative newcomer, blockbuster hangout haven for a slightly different clientele is Angela’s Organic Ice Cream, the latest edition in a long line of fantastic ice cream shops in the 94941 (shout out to Baskin Robbins’ incredibly long run ‘til it closed in 2011.) In each case, the lines out the door say it all. Angela’s Organic Ice Cream was originally founded in Petaluma as Lala’s Creamery. Angela Garat and her son, Ignacio, purchased the business and recipes in 2017, and it’s been full speed ahead ever since. There is MUCH more to come, as you’ll read here.

Marin County Supes Voted Unanimously on a Letter to BCDC Calling for a Pilot Study on the Effects of Removing the Bike Lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge Four Days a Week on a Trial Basis

Moulton-Peters, the county’s representative on BCDC, acknowledged the results of the UC Berkeley study, but added, “The lived experience of people that we have heard from in this county and elsewhere is very different. We need to make a more reliable commute for the people coming from the East Bay to work in Marin.” Additional changes are planned for the bridge, including removing the toll booths at east end and reinstating a previous high occupancy vehicle lane on the westbound upper deck. Planners are also studying the possibility of using the multiuse lane as an additional lane for carpools and buses.

Caleb Roope, chief executive officer of the Pacific Companies, the project’s developer. “That isn’t how we see it.” Roope said the bonds were issued long ago and purchased by Citibank. He said the ruling has failed to shake Citibank’s confidence in the project. “Everybody takes for granted that you’re not going to be able to unwind approvals that have already happened,” Roope said. “The ruling doesn’t have an effect on what we’re doing and our ability to proceed.” Roope said his company owns the land in Marin City and has all of the needed approvals.
