News reports indicate that Lumax Lighting posted a notice on its company doors yesterday, saying in effect that operations at the business have ceased after 47 years of doing business. The notice cited Monday as the official closing day for Lumax, and no other information was given as to why the business was shutting down for good. Lumax was locally owned and operated out of its building on chestnut avenue. Employees will have to make an appointment to pick up any belongings they may still have inside the building.
