Mr. Marsters questioned the use of the second floor of the building and Mr. MacNeill said it would be unheated and unfinished.

Ms. Hawver reviewed the following Findings for the Decision: The current use of the premises as a contractor's storage and repair yard is a valid pre-existing nonconforming use of the premises which originated approximately in 1950. The proposed additional use of the premises is allowed under Section 174-24 in this C-2 district and the plan conforms to the current setback and parking requirements.
