OBSERVATIONS: The distilling operation is part of a 319-acre farm.A portion of the property was zoned to A-B Agri- Business in 2009 for the distilling warehouse. There is an existing residence on the property that is proposed to be converted into the spirit tasting area. The closest neighboring residence is located 1800' away to the southwest across Patton Road. TOWN PLAN: The property is located in the town's agricultural preservation area. RESOURCE PROTECTION: No resource protection corridors located on the property. STAFF: Given the rural location and lack of any immediate neighbors, the requested amendment to allow expanded hours of operation and occasional use of outdoor loudspeakers appears reasonable. The proposal also appears consistent with town plan policies. Staff has recommended amended conditions of approval in addition to any conditions that may be required by the town of Vienna (see page 2). TOWN:Approved with conditions.
