Dawn Foods (owner Dawn Besco Inc.) is rebuilding and expanding its on-site wastewater treatment at 6303 Kenjoy Drive, adding a new WWPTP building, two tanks and three silos.

A site-design waiver has been submitted for the Dixie and Watson Wawa at 13620 Dixie Hwy — applicant Bowman (Joseph Mackin) is asking to waive the rule that normally requires 50% of street-level walls and doors be glass on all street-facing facades. The 19.84-acre C-1 parcel owned by Charles B.
