Coffee is enthusiastic about the future of the Central Point ~ community. We currently maintain a successful single drive-through coffee business on East Pine Street and have had many requests by customers to find a ® ~ location on Highway 99 somewhere between Central Point and Medford. We believe that we must listen and respond to our customer base as well as grow and challenge ourselves to stay healthy as a business. We have been working i h h f h l d f i d h h w t t e owners o t e enc ose property or somet me an ave come to t e conclusion that we should make something happen there that would benefit many parties. We are proposing to clean up this piece of property from its current condition of " " eye-sore with no specific purpose to an improved piece of property in line with the development concepts of the TOD District. In this proposal you will find a site plan showing the addition of a 6-foot street planter and 5-foot sidewalks, a paved access area with simple traffic circulation, and several thousand square feet ~ of landscape. This is a large project that we feel has multiple rewards for Central Point which include beautification, reduced traffic at the existing location on East Pine Street, ~ and the creation of 5-7 new jobs to the area. Thank you your consideration. fo r ~- ~ 7 / ~~ Brian Maxwell Dutch Bros. Coffee ~s ~- ~- Dutch Bros. LLC • 903 NW "F" St., Bldg.
