You asked about some financial facts regardine our impact on the neighborhood (It would helpful to find the letter ent Juiv 25�' since it contains more detail than what f ilow . ♦ PRIVAT'E dollars invested in the project = over $500,000.00 ♦ JOBS = first year 30+ and yeazs 2+ over 125 JOBS AVERAGING $10.00 PER HOUR! ♦ JOB PAY range=$6 to $ I S-NONE OF OUR JOBS WILL BE AT TF� MINIMUM WAGE LEVEL ♦ The development and long term success of this property will CONTRIBUTE SIGNIFICANTT,Y to the local taY base The revenue lost to The Vintage and area employees if pafio hours are shortened would be as follows: Season = May, June, July, August and September 20 weeks total business or 1,120 hours -40 hours lost for bad weather = 1080 hours (average amount of revenue per hour =$400.00fhour) -17 hours/ week loss to shorter hours x 19 weeks = NET LOSS- 323 I30URS OR 129 200 IN LO T REVENUE�+� Therefore we AGREE AND REQiJEST THE PROPOSAL YOU WROTE LAST WEEK WHICH IS IN AGREEMENT WITH'I'HE RECOMI�IENDATION OF THE OFFICE OF LICENSE, INSPECTION AND ENVIIZONMENTAL PROTECTION. A patio license with no restrictions. Service on our patio would stop at 12:30 am on Monday through Saturday and 11:30 PM on Sunday ** It has come to my attention that a few neighbors wish to rescind their support of our patio unless it has the hours recommended by the District 8 council. They feel we were not up front with them and have been accused of being dishonest. THIS IS NOT THE CASE. ♦ When we asked people to sign the petition we made it very clear the hours were yet to be decided (a fact Mrs. Bergstrom has stated in a letter to you dated August 30,1996) ♦ While many different hours were discussed none were AGREED TO by us except unrestricted hours R �-� �� In a neighborZ�e�ort to curb as much�otential as�ossible fQr noise we have made the foZZowing. costiv compromises. ♦ We are planning to move our make-up air and new air-conditioning system to the roof versus behind the building to provide a quieter setting to our northern neighbors. The cost of tbis move is over $8,000.00 ♦ We have decreased the size of the patio 800 square feet and have placed it right on Selby Avenue which makes for a much noisier patio for my clients. The revenue lost from this decrease in patio size is @ 35,000.00! ♦ We also put in parking to the north side of the patio to Surther defer any POSSIBLE noise to our neighbors. ♦ We have ofFered a 6` opaque, privacy fence AROUND THE PA1'IO beriveen the clients and our northern neighbors at a cost of @$3,000.00 ♦ In addition if we receive the our we are requesting, we will be with working officers Ed Lemon aad Paul Aarper to add their presence, at no small expense, to our building AND to work the adjoining streets. Our aeighbors should be vety 6appy.!!! IF YOU ADD UP THE FINANCIAL COMPRONIISES ALONE WE Hr1VE NIADE TO ENSYJRE A MINIMAL IMPACT TO OIJR NEIGHBORS IT IS-$38,000.00 (not to mention the time and effort to attend every possible neighborhood meeting and to arrange the above items) It would be unfair however to look at the vintage only from iPs financial impact . Let me reiterate other poinu which seem to have been overlooked but should be a great interest of our neighbors. ♦ Having quality people in our azea (outside and wallcing azound) after 10 pm would be a great help to the azea. Young people aze less likely to commit crimes if they see adults in the azea late at night. If we close at lOpm it wil] be business as usual on the Selby Dale comer. ♦ We were requued to have 90% of residenu sign a petition if they lived within 200 feet of the property line. Over 90% did sign and we spoke very specifically that hours were yet to be determined. Several of the neighbors ASSUMED that the petition included the hours recommended by District 8 meetings BUT WERE NOT AGREED TO BY THE VINTAGE PARTNERS. WE MADE IT VERY CLEAR THAT SIGNING Tf�', PETITION DID NOT INDICATE ANY CERTAIN HOURS AT TFiAT TIME ♦ We have asked the police officers in the area to work our restaurant -they said they would! The neighbors should be elated. (I won't need officers if my patio is cleazed at I Opm!) ♦ Clientele determine the nature of a business-our tazget mazket is upper income 35+ ♦ Not all bazs aze alike and shouldn't be ueated as such ♦ WE ARE TN AN "ENTERPRISE/DEVELOPMENT ZONE° BLJSINESSES IN THIS AREA NEED EVERY CHANCE AVAILABLE TO SUCCEED-SELBY NEEDS ENTERPRISE NOT RESTRICTIONS � � � � If you close our patio down eazly then our competitors should have the same hours � If the Selby/ Dale azea eams a reputation for restricting business it will never improve but rather have crime and poverty problems for years to come. IS IT ANY ACCIDENT THAT TWO LARGE LOTS ON THE CORNER ARE STILL VACANT? ��i� 7erry, you have said publicly that public presence in this area is vital. VJe agree, tate night�resence of quality people on this corner is of the utmost importance. Shouid we not achieve the desired hours than we may not be able to survive long enough to prove you were right. We would like to be abie support you as my council member in the future and thus hope you will pursue unrestricted patio hours for the Vintage. ou � �� Anthony Huisebus Troy DeWitt Vicki DeWitt cc: Janice Rettman Dave Thune Mike Harris Roberta Megazd Dan Bostrom Dino Guerin �uesday, September 03, 1996 09:7 3:44 PM SEP-H3-1996 16�37 � (�� -� � age 7 of 7 P.01iO4 ��CEIV�D ScP3_ � I��y � TCathryn Bergstroro 58U Dayto-n Avenue St Pau)� 14� 55102 b72-272-0558 (ln ��z �-2szs cw� 3cny Blakey Ward 1 Councilmember 310 St. Paul Git}= Hall 15 l�Jest Kellogg Boulevud st. n��, nTV ss r o2 RE; The Vinta�e, Ine. 579 S�Ib}' Avenue Taear Councllmember I3lakey: Au�ust 34, 1996 Post-it Fax N�e 7671 � a��n colDept phpne p F"�» 7. z z- 77G7 I am writing on behalf of variuus neighbo� regardv�, the pmposed patio at The Vint�ge ina ("Vintage").
