This <br /> offer is contingent upon the rezoning of the property from Al <br /> Exclusive to AB Agri-Business. It has come to our attention that <br /> the Village of DeForest objects to the proposed rezoning. I have <br /> not received copies of the written materials submitted by the <br /> Village to the Board. However, based upon comments made at the <br /> public hearing on January 10, 1995, I will try to address the <br /> concerns I am aware of. <br /> Eurovet, Inc. ' s business on the Town of Windsor property <br /> will not drastically change the nature of the property as it is <br /> being used today. Eurovet processes agricultural products to be <br /> used in agriculture. Eurovet, Inc. ' s business is very similar to <br /> a farmer who would grow grain and package it for distribution to <br /> other farmers for feed, the difference being that Eurovet <br /> purchases the materials from farmers as well. The business is <br /> integrally tied to agriculture and will benefit agriculture in <br /> this community. <br /> It appears that one of the Village's major objections is <br /> that we are asking to have the eastern ten acres of the property <br /> rezoned rather than a smaller portion. Ten acres was chosen <br /> because it reduced the cost of the survey, not because Eurovet <br /> planed expansion along highway 51. If the ten acre parcel is <br /> unacceptable, Eurovet would consider rezoning a smaller parcel. <br /> However, if a new survey is required or a new application must be <br /> submitted, the parties will be required to expend significant <br />
