What's happening?
According to a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations, construction will start July 21 and conclude Sept. 1. The $750,000 project includes new refrigeration and freezer cases; refrigeration changing from gas to CO2; new checkout stands; and new fixtures/finishes in sales, restrooms and breakroom, according to the state document.

The store will remain open while renovations are underway.
