CORONADO, Calif. (KGTV) -- A Coronado bookstore that’s been a fixture of the landscape for nearly three decades will be able to move a few doors down thanks to a decision by the City Council.

In 2018, a developer bought up nearly a whole block of Orange Avenue and Bay Books was only paying a fraction of market rent.

Owner Angelica Muller told 10News in February that the store was considering a move down the block, but would have to sell coffee and pastries to stay in business.

“We believe this policy will be helpful to our downtown business community and is a win for Coronado,” Bailey said.
