Assistant Director Beutler also stated a turnaround was never constructed at this location, Harbor Freight will allow an easement for turnaround traffic for large vehicles as well as the general public. An additional 10’ easement is being granted due to potential height maintenance of the cell tower as well as snow storage.

Mr. Boyle believes this project indicates the economy is doing well and expanding.
