COFFEE DRIVE-THRU EYES RICHMOND'S EAST SIDE

(Richmond, IN)--A new building and a new business appear headed for the Gateway Plaza on National Road East in Richmond.  Lora Schlosser, who lives in Portland, appeared before the city’s Board of Zoning Appeals Wednesday and said that she would like to put a coffee franchise where the former Lulu’s Taco building is.  That franchise is called Scooter’s Coffee.  Schlosser already owns a Scooter’s in Decatur and described the business.  "Drive-thru only...we offer specialty coffee, energy drinks, and some food items," Schlosser said.  The Zoning Board gave unanimous approval Wednesday.  Demolition and construction are expected to start soon.
