Council Member Kevin Riley inquires about the employees at Arrow Linen Laundry Business, specifically asking about the number of employees who will retain their jobs and the current state of the business. Nora Martins, the Land Use Counsel, provides information about the business's current operations and future plans for employees.

  • The exact number of employees to be rehired was not immediately available, but Martins assured that all current workers would be retained and potentially more added.
  • Arrow Linen is currently operating at reduced capacity due to pandemic impacts on their hotel linen client base.
  • The business is expected to grow and increase its workforce in the future.
