Chairman Neuer asked Mr. Vandeloech if he thinks one bathroom is sufficient for the public to use; he said yes.

Mr. Eben expressed his concern on record regarding Mr. Vandeloech not practicing architecture under the laws in the State of New Jersey. Mr. Eben stated that he thinks that one bathroom on every floor would be good for the customers. Mr. Eben asked Mr. Grygiel if the shadow boxes in the windows are in violation of the zoning ordinance; he said he will have to get back to him on that. Chairman Neuer asked Mr. Vandeloech if there is
