Dear Mr. Corrosion
I am writing this letter in support of Susanna of Susanna's Custom Designs who is applying for for a permit to open a
shop. I have been a customer of Susanna for several years at her downtown Salem location. In fact Susanna custom
made my wedding dress two tears ago after a fruitless search for the perfect gown and it was everything I wanted and
more.
Susanna has owned and operated her seamstress business in Salem for many years. As with many other small
businesses in Salem, Susanna's shop was disrupted by the Covid 19 pandemic. I was very sad to see this, but was excited
to learn that she was planning to relocate within the city.
I can vouch for the fact that Susanna has a loyal following of satisfied customers. Her shop, while always busy, does not
attract an undue amount of traffic. Her operations are quiet and involve nothing louder than a sewing machine.
You would be doing her patrons a great service by granting her permit for opening at her new locale. Thank you for your
time and consideration.
