JAMES and NANCY MURPHY 8205 KLEVENVILLE-RILEY ROAD VERONA, WI 53593 June 30, 1999 Dane County Planning and Development City-County Building 210 Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. Madison, WI 53709 Re: Conditional Use Application Ladies and Gentlemen: We are writing this letter in support of our application for a Conditional Use Permit for the property we own at 8205 Klevenville-Riley Road, Verona. We have owned this property since December 1991 and operate the Riley Tavern. A tavern has been operated at this location for over 50 years. The property is currently zoned C-1, Commercial District. We are requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow certain activities 10.'3 (2) to take place. Specifically, the Conditional Use Permits (c requested would allow the following: (1) extension of the ( existing tavern; (2) outdoor entertainment open to the public; and (3) games such as horseshoes, volleyball or similar ( a) activities lighted to operate at night. We are in the process of building a structure at the back of the property primarily for a garage for personal uses. However, we would like to use a portion of the structure as an expansion of the tavern. This would permit food service and sales of individual beverages during those times of the year when outdoor entertainment activities are provided. We would like to hold outdoor entertainment activities which are open for the public. Specifically, this would involve the Riley Fest which is held annually. In addition, during the summer months, monthly bluegrass jam sessions can be held outdoors. Finally, games such as horseshoes and/or volleyball activities might be conducted on site and although most of these activities would be conducted during daylight hours, we would like to have lights installed for limited nighttime activity.
