410/f <br /> January 12, 1992 <br /> To : Elk River City Council <br /> From: Elk River Downtown Development Corporation <br /> Dear Council Members : <br /> As you are probably aware, we have been working with the group <br /> trying to locate a farmer ' s market in the downtown area. We feel <br /> that this activity would be a positive influence on the downtown <br /> retailers . We have discussed the possible location of the market <br /> in the parking lot behind Kemper Drug store and feel that the use <br /> of this parking lot will give the farmer' s market the exposure it <br /> needs to have a reasonable chance of success . We have discussed <br /> the possible market days of Wednesday nights and/or Sundays as <br /> • compatible days for both the downtown retailers and the farmers , <br /> although other times may also be appropriate . <br /> We feel strong enough about this market that our development <br /> corporation has decided to lend some financial help to this group. <br /> We are writing you this letter to encourage the city council to be <br /> as flexible as possible in helping this farmer' s market get <br /> started. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free <br /> to give myself, Jim Mulroy, Dave Plude, Al Nadeau or Jeff Kleinbaum <br /> a call . <br /> Respectfully,/ <br /> /;.214/..Z2 <br /> Rob VanValkenbu , President <br /> Elk River Downtown Development Corporation <br /> • <br />
