I i <br />\ <br />I <br />There is quite a large grassy area in the front of this building that could possibly be used <br />for display of special cars on nice days (see Picture A). Although the size of this area has <br />room for approximately 10 cars, no more than three cars would ever be placed there, and <br />they would then only be there for short periods. <br />Due to its size and location, this building has very limited uses. We feel our proposed <br />use is one that would work very well and is within your discretion to allow under a <br />conditional use permit. The appreciation of collector cais is very unique to all of us, as <br />everyone reminisces in the past. We also know many collector car hobbyists live in the <br />western suburban area. To date, 1 haven't found one person that finds our business <br />offensive. We see absolutely NO difference in the display of 4 - 6 cars at this site (see <br />Picture B) than you see with 4 - 6 cars belonging to employees or customers parked at a <br />lot nearby as shown in Picture C. We see little difference between a gaUery selUng old <br />pictures and furniture or one selling old cars, except in the size of the antiques. <br />Although someday we may become a museum, the only difference is that a museum <br />charges admission. <br />This request, I realize, requires some imagination on the Council's part. If all proposals <br />were cut and dried, and read to the tetter of any ordinance, there would be no need for <br />commissions or councils, as everything could be handled by competent staff. <br />Please see our request as an excellent opportunity to add an attractive business to your <br />Navarre commercial area. We would be a great asset to your community. <br />Sincerely, <br />Richard B. Bury <br />1
