Those who wish to speak must first state their name and address. <br />Dino DiFranco <br />553 Zorn Lane <br />I have been a resident of the Village for 28 years. I married my wife here. I raised my kids here. I <br />have always been a staunch supporter of the Village, always singing praises to everyone who will <br />listen. Late last year, two partners and myself had the opportunity to buy a company in Lake County <br />which we did. It is a 90-year-old company. We wish to move it from its existing location. I set my <br />sights on a piece of property on Beta Drive. I contacted the Westin Group. We have been worlcing on <br />a lease proposal. I have asked that the Resolution on tonight's agenda be pulled so myself-and my <br />partners have the opportunity to meet with the subcominittee to discuss our plans and give a little <br />familiarity with our company. <br />Our goal is to move us into Mayfield Village. We currently have 30 employees and a substantial <br />payroll. Because the building has been vacant for the past 12 years, there's a substantial amount of <br />inyestment needed. My goal is to work with the Village so that together we can take what is in my <br />opinion the worst commercial property in the Village and bring it up to today's standards and make it a <br />gem for the Village and bring some employment to the Village. I hope to see you again next month <br />after we meet with the subcommittee and bring this again to your attention.
