The drive around it will be big enough for a car but not a truck. In response to Mr. Conway's questions, Mr. Schultz advised that the addition between the two buildings will not be built. Mr. Conway stated that parking should be adequate since they were not putting in the larger center addition and the parking had been calculated previously with that included.
