Miller I was instructed by our people because we were wanting to open a mechanical shop. Did you use the location of 3210 Boyette? Yes sir I did. At the time you asked for this permit, were you intending in any way to use the front section, which is 11230 Spencer Highway as a mechanical shop? No sir. What had you been operating there? We had been operating as a truck terminal. Did you continue with that up until this day? Yes sir. Were you surprised when the City came out and asked y'all to shut down? Yes sir I was. Were you the manager of the terminal here at the time Mr. Steeland bought this? Yes sir I was. Did you deal at all with Mr. Phelts as a landlord? I had met Mr. Phelts. At the time, what did you rent from back here? Did you rent this whole building? No sir, we rented the one bay garage. Did you request that Mr. Steeland put this road here? No sir I did not. Do you know why Mr. Steeland put the road in? Because he was having trouble with his trucks coming In loading his diesel parts and having to back out. Where were you fixing trucks? We were doing most of our repair work in Channelview. Mr. Wilson finishes questioning Mr. Miller and the following is a brief summation of conversation that continued.
