A Fairview Heights business remains temporarily closed after sustaining damage during a recent storm.

The closure of Total Wine & More (5905 N. Illinois St.) is due to a maintenance issue, according to Dallas Alley, the city’s director of land use and development.

Roof repairs are currently underway, he said. “They want to get open [and fully operational] as soon as possible.”

Calls to the store are currently answered with a recorded message of the temporary closure. A request for comment sent to Total Wine’s media relations team is pending.

A heavy thunderstorm passed through the metro-east Thursday afternoon and included wind speeds up to 26 mph, according to the Weather Underground website.
