At last week’s board meeting, Public Health Director Lauren Buck made an introductory presentation on what biosafety regulations for the city could look like. The regulations will still need to be drafted in conjunction with the city solicitor and go forward to a public hearing before the Board of Health takes a vote on them. “The City Council voted a couple of weeks ago to change some of the things on the existing ordinance,” said Buck.

The Dandee Donut Factory should be opening its new location at 1141 Revere Beach Pkwy. within the month. Last week, the License Commission approved a common victualler license for a 50-seat restaurant that will be open seven days a week from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. “We are a diner with freshmade donuts open seven days a week,” said Dandee Donut Factory VP of operations Dave Pilarski. “The location is in the fi nishing stages of its buildout currently. It’s a full-service diner with a drive through and take away.” The restaurant will open on property owned by the Coppola family, who will be constructing a car wash on the property that will be opening alongside the Dandee Donuts. Owner Joe Coppola is the owner of Barn Car Wash on Squire Road and on Frank Lee Bennett Highway/ Rte. 1 north in Saugus. This will be the third location, the second in Revere. “The project has been under construction for some time, and now we are bringing it home and should be open soon,” said Coppola. Coppola said he believes Dandee Donuts will be a good tenant for the property and for Revere. Currently, there are three Dandee Donuts locations in Florida. Pilarski said a location in Marblehead recently closed to make way for the Revere location.
