To be read at Salem Planning Board meeting, 6119114
I am sorry I cannot be there to say in person I fully support the
Ordinance to allow Brewery, Distillery or Winery tasting rooms.
Monday night's City Council meeting was very informative with
many proponents speaking about their well considered and
developed business plans. Salem is the perfect location for this type
of craft and artisan endeavor. Like the other wonderful coastal
destination cities of Portsmouth NH and Portland ME, we should
get on board and facilitate these locally sourced and owned
businesses.
I encourage the Ordinance to be as open and inclusive of locations as
possible. As Tim Ready said, we need not rewrite the state
regulations. I don't believe we should attach special permits as a
requirement.
We are experiencing a rapid expansion of positive growth in Salem.
Let's keep it going!
Helen
