Rivet Insurance will be increasing its presence at Cassells and 7th.

A rezoning proposal at last Tuesday night’s committee meeting called for a parking lot to be rezoned for commercial use.

Paul Goodridge was representing Rivet Insurance and says they’re located near the parking lot and are taking over a nearby building.

He says once both buildings are developed into one larger building, the entire corner of Cassells and 7th will be Rivet Insurance.

This all means there will be more people working in the area and they’ll need parking spots.

Goodridge says there will be 5-6 additional staff hired once the development project is complete, and possibly more after that.
