Road
Russ Mitchell opened the hearing; Brett Lindsey of Amerco Real Estate presented the plan. Started working on the old K-Mart building, storage units are climate controlled. The plan is to remove the small island in front of the retail store, located next to OCC. The covered sidewalk (island) juts out into the parking lot. We use that area to stage the trucks, clean them and get them ready for renting. The through traffic makes for hazardous conditions.
Hal Henty asked what type of service they performed out front. Mr. Lindsey said Check tire pressure, oil, and clean out the cab to get the truck ready to rent.
