Rhinehart request OK'd (3/9/05)

Wants to open East North Street bed-liner business

By By Rachelle Haughn-

The Portland Board of Zoning Appeals approved a special exception request Tuesday which will allow a Portland man to start a new business.

Doyle Rheinhart wants to open a spray-on bedliner business in his garage located at 106 E. North St., Portland. The lot is currently zoned as a central business district. Since Rheinhart’s business is classified as an automotive body shop, he had to get permission from the board to open it in the central business district.

Before board members voted, Rheinhart said he wanted to open the business so he could make some extra money and have something to do in his spare time. Rheinhart owns and operates Pay-Less Pizza of Portland with his wife.

BZA vice president Ron May asked Rheinhart if the spray used to make the truck bedliners would create many fumes.

Rheinhart said the spray creates very little fumes and has a weaker odor than paint.

He will use filtered exhaust fans to clean the air before it exits the garage. Rheinhart plans to wear a fiberglass respirator to protect his lungs when he sprays.

There was no opposition to the request from adjacent property owners or those in attendance Tuesday evening.

After the meeting, Jay/Portland Building and Planning administrator Bill Milligan said Rheinhart has not yet chosen a name for his business.[[In-content Ad]]
