I would like to say in summary that we are a great asset to the city of Elk <br />River. Over the last 2 i/2 years we've had approximately 300+ car sales., <br />not to mention shop repair and. restoration, from many. different states. <br />including Minnesota. We have a constant flow of people from many <br />areas (other states) that come to look and browse at our collector cars. <br />Most stay a significant tinge and eat at restaurants .and shop at our local <br />stores. One Saturday morning this summer before lpm, I had 78 people <br />look at our cars and. shop area. We support our local businesses as much <br />as possible. I purchase many parts from NAPA, Elk River Ford, Saxon <br />Motors, O'Reilly's, Elk River Exhaust, Precision Frame, Rockwoods, <br />Daddy O's, Menards, Home Depot, Amoco Fuel, and more. We bank <br />locally at the Bank of Elk River in all our accounts. We are a profitable <br />business today and have multiple employees (up to 10). It seems to me <br />in these days of trying economic times, it would be a poor business <br />move of this council to eliminate a business that is helping and <br />supporting other businesses in our city. <br />Lastly, I .would like to ask for an extension on my conditional use permit <br />to complete the work. I am requesting until October 30 2009. Thank <br />you for your consideration. <br />Sincerely, <br />Bi1LMatthews <br />
