Dear Commissioners:
Baja Fresh will store the outdoor patio furniture off premises at a local self

The ambience created by the outside -patio will have a positive economic impact
on our operation and will assist in the finaneial viability of the concept
Your consideration is greatly appreciated and we look forward to the hearing for
final approval of the patio.
