STATEMENT OF INTENT. <br /> MICHAEL BONAVENTURA <br /> MARCH 22, 1988 <br /> I, Michael Bonaventura, propose to use the free-standing building adjacent <br /> to Apache Plaza (formerly NAPA Auto Parts) for a youth-oriented malt <br /> shop and arcade. I intend to establish a safe and enjoyable recreational <br /> facility for adolescents and young adults in the St. Anthony area. A youth- <br /> oriented recreational facility is needed in this community, where adoles- <br /> cents and young adults currently have limited opportunities to meet with <br /> their friends in facilities that meet the community's high standards of re- <br /> sponsible behavior and are viewed as enjoyable by the young people they <br /> are designed to serve. <br /> This will be a tobacco-free environment, which will be staffed to insure <br /> adequate supervision of youth on the premises. "BONO'S MALT SHOP AND <br /> ARCADE" will feature numerous activities to attract adolescents and young <br /> adults, will provide a healthy, positive recreational climate for them, and <br /> will affirm their value in the community. I believe this facility will create <br /> respect between adolescents, young adults and business leaders in the <br /> area, and will be viewed as an asset to the community by its young clients, <br /> by parents, and by civic and educational leaders in St. Anthony. <br /> • <br />
