I say that right? Bailey Knapp, doing business

two-bedroom apartment on the upper level of an
existing structure located at 1 0 1 West Center

one quarter acre and is generally located at the

Bailey about a year ago and we searched high and
low for a location for her to do a bakery that is
more than just a bakery. It is really going to
be more of a small bites, tapas restaurant,
drinks, as it evolves, and we found this location
and thought it would be an ideal location for her
to operate.
It is something that the City of
Yorkville has yearned for for 23 years that I
have been doing this job, so having a resident of
Yorkville, a woman who actually graduated from
Yorkville High School, to come back here and
achieve her dream is a wonderful thing, and so I
just wanted to let you know about the evolution
of bringing Bailey to this location.
I think it will be a phenomenal
location and it will also be a catalyst for that
park to be -- perhaps become more business
orientated, so thank you very much.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: Okay. Thank you. Is
there anyone who wishes to speak in favor of the
request? You do not have to.
MS. KNAPP: What?
MS. DUBAJIC: Do you want to speak?

MS. KNAPP: No.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: I am assuming there is
no one who wishes to speak in opposition to the
request.
(No response.)
CHAIRMAN OLSON: Anyone have any
questions right now?
MR. ENGBERG: Real quick, the standards
for special use here, they provided those answers
into their application. Would you like those in
the public record?
MS. DUBAJIC: Yes.
MS. KNAPP: Sure.
MR. ENGBERG: Sure, yes.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: All right. Since all
public testimony regarding this petition is
taken, may I have a motion please to close the
taking of the public hearing?
MR. VINYARD: So moved.
MR. WILLIAMS: Second.
MS. YOUNG: Olson.
CHAIRMAN OLSON: Yes.
