The following is an attempt to respond to the five criteria which, as outlined in the presentation procedures, must be met before the Board can make a decision on our request. Criteria 1, 2 and 3 do not seem to apply to our application as we wish to move existing businesses into an existing building while making no change to its character. Criteria 4 & 5 are answered as completely as possible. General background information I. We wish to install a florist supply business which now resides in Middlesex, VT. The following is a description of the character of this business. A. Fresh flowers and florist supplies are received, processed, displayed, and delivered to (or picked up by) customers. B. Small vans are used for deliveries to customers. C. Several (not more than five) trucks deliver products each week to our building. D. Customers pick up in small passenger vehicles and small vans. E. Parking lot is on premises. Photos of existing florist supply business attached. II. We would like to find professional type tenants to enable us to lease the existing office areas and; III. A possible third business which might wish to use a combination of office and additional open space. All three would necessarily be compatible with Green Mountain Florist Supply, Inc. and each other. Criteria 4 Ref. Change in character of neighborhood A. There will be no change in structure or the appearance of the structure which would affect the neighborhood. 1) Working hours are compatible with other existing businesses. 2) Flowers and associated florist supplies will be displayed for consumers use within building. 3) No chemicals, fumes or other forms of pollutants are used in the process. 4) Character of business is enhanced by attractive appearance of building and grounds. 5) No lighted signs etc. are necessary to attract customers. Criteria 4 Ref. Impair use of adjacent property 1. The usage of the building (florist supplies) is not intended to impair the appropriate use or development of adjacent property as the intended business is a quiet, low profile, and clean operation. Associated businesses would be compatible. Criteria 5 As a result, requested use would not be detrimental to public welfare. 4t, Nolk 0 El P i, ._.L. ��.---4.- .lam r.• L ��•' ':i�r'.
