Individuals present in opposition:

tobacco.

drive-thru window is closed, but she has seen it open and in operation.
Individuals present in support:
Anthony Quinn, 1609 W Hopkins St stated the premises is more of a convenience
store, that is well lit and safe and the applicant helps the community.

and he is treated well by the applicant.
Ms. Webb stated that the community meeting held regarding the premises was split
