NOTE:**



We had a fire in 2014 which destroyed 1/3 of our building. We are finally at the end of the rebuild construction and the city wants me to add a wheel chair ramp. We have handicap accessible restrooms and office available on the first floor. There is no need to add a $95,000 wheel chair ramp to my building.



wheel chair ramp is going to cost $94,000. We are a family business and can not spend on something that will NEVER be used
