According to Denise Davis of the Portsmouth Building inspectors’ office, at this point in time there only exists a construction permit for the deconstruction of the canopy and removal of the tanks.
Davis said there is nothing on the zoning docket for any type of expansion or rehabilitation of the building itself.
