KP • Mazomanie.Wisconsin 53560 • (608) 767-3775 • (608) 643-6905 September 12, 1994 Mr. Bill Fleck, Zoning Administrator City County Buildiing, Room 116 210 Martin Luther King Blvd. Madison, WI 53709 RE: Zoning Petition #6039 Dear Mr. Fleck: Some time ago Duane and Joyce Haag, decided to follow the American dream and start their own business. Many long and hard days later, this business has grown to the point where expansion was necessary or curtailment of service inevitable. A decision to expand and grow seemed like the logical move. Land was purchased, a young mechanic student was hired, building, sanitation, and driveway permits obtained, along with a deed restriction of no more than five cars, trucks, or tractors at one time. This deed restriction, which was so inconsequential when the business was in its infancy, is the one thing that now means the difference between success and failure for this growing business. Customers cannot stop for appraisals and appointments, employee and owners cannot park their own vehicles at the work place, suppliers cannot service the business and financing for the project will be curtailed because of the five vehicle limit restriction. Common sense government ! Is it gone? Every young business needs some of the same ingredients to grow and be successful. Some of these are hard work, long hours, good luck, knowledge of the business and faithful customers. The one thing any young business cannot tolerate is restriction of growth and potential by outside agency. The Haag's are not asking for State, County, or Local tax advantage programs. They know their taxes will increase and intend on paying them. They do not need a new highway interchange built on their behalf. They have a driveway permit. They do not need a new sanitation pumping station built for them. Their sewer and water are in and will be maintained by them. They do not need any additional schools built on their behalf. They intend on providing service to the schools and villages around them. Please, use some common sense when deciding this issue. Time and resources by all parties, could be better spent on issues of higher concern and importance. Remove the restrictions on this property and start reaping the benetit that a growing viable business can bring to a growing and viable Dane County.
