Mr. Wessel said everything will be stored inside. All ordered in and stored in 65 gallon drums. He is buying both buildings. He has no other renter at this time. He does not see any future need for any toxic chemicals. It is a small business, maybe six employees at most. Mr. Wessel seeks a change in zoning from B-3 to M-1. He wants to add landscaping, no changes to building.
Discussion over right-of-way to his building on North Street was held.
