ATTACHMENT TO ITEM S. REFERENCE: E3.8.24.1. (C) STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROPERTY AND OF THE APPROPRIATENESS AND CHARACTER ENHANCEMENT WH 10-1 SUPPORTS APPROVAL OF USE OF THE PROPERTY AS BED AND BREAKFAST FACILITY THE INITIAL REST'ORAT I ON AP'PROXIMAT'ELY CS YEARS AGO BY COMAN. AT THAT TIME,THE HOUSE - WAS LITERALLY SAVED FROM SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTION TO THE SOME DRAMATIC CHANGES IN THEIR COMAN VACATED THE PROPERTY. APPROXIMATELY THREE (=) YEARS. OF THIS PROPERTY WAS UNDERTAKEN THE PREVIOUS OWNERS, MR. AND MRS. - PART OF WHICH DATES TO THE 1 7tO S DESTRUCTION. AFTER THIS VERY COMMUNITY, WITH ADVANCING AGE AND PERSONAL SITUATION, MR. AND MFRS. IT LANGUISHED ON THE MARKET FOR IN 19e9, WHEN WE ACQUIRED THE PROPERTY, IT WAS AGAIN ON THE VERGE OF SERIOUS DECAY AND NEGLECT. IT HAD BEEN VACANT FOR MORE MORE THAN TWO YEARS. RESTORING THE PROPERTY HAS SEEN AN EXTENSIVE AND EXPENSIVE UNDERTAKING. WE ARE SEEKING THE SPECIAL_ PERMIT AT THIS TIME TO FURTHER ESTABLISH THIS PROPERTY AS A VITAL PART OF THE COMMUNITY AND TO HELP PROTECT IT FROM EVER AGAIN FALLING INTO AN ABANDONED AND NEGLECTED STATE. WE BELIEVE: ESTABLISHMENT OF THE PROPERTY AS A BED AND BREAKFAST, MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO REALIZE SOME REVENUE TO HELP SUPPORT THE UPKEEP AND MAINTAINANCE OF THE PROPERTY, IS ESSENTIAL TO THE FUTURE PRESERVATION OF THIS PROPERTY. FURTHER, THIS IS A MOST APPROPRIATE USE OF THIS PROPERTY AND IN CHARACTER WITH THIS TYPE OF HISTORICAL ESTATE. THE SIZE AND LAYOUT OF THE STRUCTURE MAKE IT VERY AMENABLE TO USE AS A BED AND BREAKFAST. THE SIZE OF THE LOT (6.46 ACRES) MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO ACCOMMODATE PATRONS OF A BED AND BREAKFAST WITHOUT IMPACTING NEGATIVEL4 UPON THE NEIGHBORHOOD OR AREA TRAFFIC. FURTHER, THIS PROPERTY AND THIS COMMUNITY ARE THE TYPES OF PROPERTIES AND COMMUNITIES THAT ARE ATTRACTIVE TO BED AND BREAKFAST PATRONS. AND, HISTORICALLY, THIS TYPE OF EKED AND BREAKFAST HELPS COMMUNITIES MAINTAIN THEIR CHARACTER AS WELL. pi 47
