14 full-time employees, 6 part-time, and they are hoping to have 5 more seasonal summer employees <br />12 full time employees including 6 attorneys and supporting staff. <br />13 employees, all FT, designers and salespeople. One each of the sales people live in a northern Minnesota city (?) and Owatonna and cover the north and south parts of the State. <br />five full-time and one part-time employees <br />Two full time employees <br />one full-time, 2 part-time work in hair salon. Real estate business website mentions five staff and four independent agents. <br />4PT, 25 volunteers <br />5 FT <br />3. Is your business currently considering (select options): <br />Expanding at this location with more food items <br />The business operates under an Interim Use Permit and is somewhat limited by this situation. A parking lot expansion was made to accommodate a safer traffic flow, this resolution has <br />worked well. There is not a business expansion plan at this time, and the business may have to downsize eventually. It seems restrictive that a business which operates at retail for only one <br />month a year is treated the same as an all-season business with respect to such items as traffic flow limitation <br />No expansion plans at this time, they have 200 seats including outdoor area, plus drive through. Their food service niche is middle of the road, tends to be stable during economic cycles, while <br />high-end and low-end food service businesses get more fluctuation. There are about five acres of cleared land available on the property. Have had the business here since about 1980 and <br />they have done six expansions during that time. The zoning is Old Village Mixed Use but just to the west is zoned differently. <br />They would like to expand at this location and double the business, but have issues as listed in section 4. <br />The firm's business has seen recent expansion in the estate planning area due to COVID-related anxiety, and expansion in the real estate area due to increased activity in local housing <br />development. Building space and staff time are fully utilized at present. <br />Business recently expanded with the addition of the last two employees. They do not have enough storage space in their location (but there is no room to expand) so they are renting 4000 sq <br />ft in Houlton WI for storage. <br />The business recently moved from the Brookfield building to the office park by the Jamaca roundabout. They have enough space but would like to expand the business by hiring and training <br />another employee. <br />Just expanded to two providers <br />Hoping to bring in a retail tenant (ice-cream shop or?) and would need to do a bit of remodeling for ADA access. Would consider selling the building if the price is right. <br />Does not plan to expand, or make any voluntary changes
