Old Business:

Chairman Ms. Rood: When’s the car wash going to be open?

Code Enforcement Officer Mr. Reed: He had a delay with that because he had to go to the planning board
because of adding the 2 bays on. The vacuum stations outside, putting lighting up.He got approval from the
planning board. And then with winter setting in, he got all the exterior construction done. He's done working on
the inside, basically, redoing all the plumbing and the new plumbing in. All the mechanicals are now up in the
attic loft area. I would anticipate, I’ve been down there for one inspection. I would anticipate probably by May.
Oh, good. It looks good.

Chairman Ms. Rood: Do we have anything besides the tabled or the open one that we still have on our docket?
Do we have anything else for April so far?

Code Enforcement Officer Mr. Reed: There may be one. He's got until this coming Friday to get Okay. Till next
Friday to get all his paperwork in. That one's going to be complex. We can discuss that Right. Afterwards.
