Rather than repeat that narrati\ c here, I \\ III attaCh it t()r VOUr information and h1 Vorl up to date on our progress. We ha\ C Continued to de\ clop our Orchard and collection of rare and unusual apples. Making this Venture Sustai1lah1C colltinuCS to be both 111M CStin`a and CllaI1Cngin`'. Our enterprise needs to be eamonlicall} \table if it is to sin i\ C and permit uS to maintain our fame aS an agricultural endca\ or. It 'IS C\ Cn more ob\ ious to uS that \cC need to produce \ aloe added products ti our fruit in order to afti)rd to continue this project. Vc grow o\er 250 varieties otapples, most of \\hich are \ irtually una\ ailable else\\hcrc. We graft manti' of tllcsc \ aricties f01 our nursery and this promises to be moderately SuCCCSSfuI. We sell our fruit at the farm and at local markets. Ma11y of our Varieties Collie Irom that period ill olll' paSt X\ hell applCS WCCC gro \\'1 primarily ti)r cider production. We ha\ e therefore embarked on building a Ciders to produce hard Cidcr in the tradition otour tl)rbCal .Icftersoll relay ha\e Strug to produce \\ ine, but cider \\ aS a staple at 'Monticello as \\ ell as \ 11tuall\ e\ Cl t11 and plantation in the Cou11tl Serious CidCr production is enjo\ing a small renaissance in SC\Cral partS of ille Cornet 'y, lltter1111! a plCaSallt \ al'lallt to more Cllnlll onl\ avallable \\ 111 and beer. AS the trees \\ c ha\ c planted in the last tlew N cars, come into production, \\ e ill be able to produce a superior product \\ itlu)ut struggling to make c\ cry apple picture perfect. We bclic\c that this endea\or is ahsolutely Consistent and Supporti\C ofthe county's COmpreflCnsive plan to foster agriculture in the Rural Area in which our tali» lies. The buildings wC x\ ill be constructing are fai use structures. The larger of the two ill hOLISC the press and tank room for cider production. This will not be open for public use. A separate and smaller (1 150 square feet) Tasting Room «ill provide a sales area for the produCt and rCStroom facilities tin \ isitors. The scalC and appearance of both will be similar to our existing barn and sheds be one story of weathered hoard siding and metal roofs. Since \ c look on this site ourselves and it iS visible trom our entry, we ha\ c engaged an architect to assist us in making it unobtrusive and in keeping with what is already here. As to the need f a site plan for this project, we think that most of the issues raised in the COUnty Code Section 32.5 have already been mct in satisfying the requirements and needs for our Farm ;Market License. The traffic generated by the cidcry will be seasonal and largel occur when we arc not selling trCsh ti ThcrctOre, the available parking will be more than adequate. Our property already has a commercial entrance per 'DOT SpecitiCatioilS COmplCtcd in 1003. The entry cnioys a long site line on Route 2 and there have been no issues generated by our business there. Our site and existing barn is wC11 Off l'.S. Route 9, situated about 30 vards tram that hi( ay and reached by a regularly maintained hard gravel SurfaCCd road that has been in Continual use for Over 13 years. The barn is Situated amidst tields and Orchard and is at significant distances ti neighboring properties. It is o\ cr 200 feet from the property line of Parccl 87 -39 which we also Own and o\ er 400 feet from the parcel beyond that. On the southern side, it is o\ er 300 \arils to the ncarC,t adjacent property. There is ample room for harking at the barn, k ith space for 15 or 0 cars. The attached conceptual schetlatic plan designates ten contiLYuous places yhich should certainiti exceed anything necessary at any one time. We respccttully request that a site dc\ elopillent plan be kN aired. We are a stand alone enterprise so traffic should he scattered and spread over the hours of operation rather than concentrated. One or t"o erllployecs should be sufficient ti)r the trade eye anticipate. "ith perhaps a supplementary helper at peak periods. We hclicye that (w small buslile>ti is intcrestill" and important Ill dc\eloping a sustainahlc agrieultural enterprise in Mhemadc County that is in keeping kith the history and spirit of the rural district in xyhich \yc lie. Since "ye are situated on a major public road",) that has ample site clearance (yc have had this reyie\\cd in the past by VDOR public safety \yill not be compromised. Rather, wc will he able to offer our local community and \ isitors a unique product in the rural setting from "hich it springs and an appreciation for preserving our culinary and aL;riCUItUral heritacc.We Nyill welcome any questions the department or various hoards may have.
