Retail Leasing Spaces
For Lease signs are up for the former Overland Sheepskin, JCB Senses retail space, and upstairs office on Washington St in the center of Town.

This past Wednesday, Town Planning met with Yountville Community Church on Yount St. to tour the construction site and review permits.
