Mr. He1lcgers replied the access on County Road E was propos cd <br />as a right turn cxit only. However, the applicant had agreed it was not absolutely <br />necessary to havc this access, but it would allow better flow through the parking <br />lot. <br /> <br />Rob Davidson, owncr, stated he had had preliminary discussion with the County, <br />and the County was in favor of the right turn entrance and right turn exit on <br />County Road E.
