April 12, 1991 Middleton Town Board 7722 Mineral Point Road Madison, WI 53717 • Enclosed is an outline, along with copies of letters of correspondence, map, and conditional use permit guide lines from Dane County. All of this should represent the activity that has taken place in efforts to try to receive a Conditional Use Permit for the property on 3440 High Point Road in the Town of Middleton . The reason we are requesting a Conditional Use Permit is that we would like to operate a Wildlife Art Gallery and Winery as well as live in the house located on 3440 High Point Road. We would not change the property (except for improvements ) in any way as to affect the surrounding land. We now own and operate Voyager Gallery at 5923 Exchange Street, McFarland, as of April of 1984. The reason we would like to add the wine sales to the gallery is that many artists today are creating wine labels along with original art and limited edition prints. The wine would sell in correlation to a limited edition print and would be matching so the customer would have the option of purchasing each limited edition. We would sell no wine by the glass or bottles opened . The majority of the wine would sell from $10. 00 to $15.00 and up per bottle . We feel that the Gallery would be an asset to the area, since many of the new homes that are being built are perhaps the kind of households that would be looking for art for their homes, and would enjoy the option of being able to purchase art close to the area that they live. We would like the Board to know that the Conditional Use Permit would not stay with the property in the future should we sell, but would have to be applied for by the new owners.
