Subject: Support of Micro - Industrial ammendment
Hi Jennifer,
Thanks for your time earlier today. As discussed, the Northgate District Association is fully supportive of the UDO
amendment that will allow micro - industrial uses in Northgate. We believe that the micro - brewery establishments that
this will enables are an excellent fit in the district.
Please pass this support on to Planning & Zoning for the hearing this Thursday under item 9, and also forward to council
when appropriate for next week's meeting. Let me know if you, the Commission, or the Council have any further
questions or if any concerns are raised during the process.
Thanks,
Chris Scotti
Executive Director
Northgate District Association
