Vohlken stated this is for tobacco products, not a marijuana dispensary. He liked the fact that there are competing businesses close together. Hollenkamp said that a lot of businesses do that, such as Walgreens and CVS across the street from each other. Vohlken said we should give them the opportunity to do business in town. Shaw said it will be good to see a business in a long standing vacant building. Chism liked free enterprise.
