Si gnel�-X� Date' r i o c� Ci'4'VlC . 9anuaryl, 2009 To whom it may concern / Deschutes County Commissioners and Development Department I am writing as a concerned person whose livelihood will be affected by the current text amendment before Deschutes County, regarding the usage of farm lands for weddings. The income provided from these weddings at family farms greatly affects my familyl I We make a living working for a catering company which contracts to do these events. Especially in these unsettling economic times we should be promoting these well run business's and enable them to flourish. In our years of service to these hosting farms we have found them to be a blessing to the community. They provide safe, well run, beautiful, events that enable local brides to be married in their home town. Most of these farms started allowing weddings after being repeatedly approached by couples seeking outdoor venues. Even with the farms currently operating there is a shortage of venues and we get asked constantly for referrals, There is a large community need for these outdoor sites! We encourage you to find a way to allow these weddings to take place. We encourage you to provide the leadership that this County needs in promoting well run family enterprises, Please----- VOTE YES ON TEXT AMMENDMENT TA -08-9 and let us promote a healthy economy in Deschutes County!

Name: Address: Date: VOTE YES ON TA -08-9 and ALLOW WEDDINGS ON RURAL LANDS Deschutes County Planners, Commissioners, and Staff I am a concerned citizen of Deschutes County and would like you to approve the passage of TA -08-9 that would allow weddings on farm lands in Deschutes County. I understand that this is a sensitive issue and it should be approached with a great deal of input from all those involved. I urge an open mind when dealing with the proposed code changes. I believe that there is a way to host weddings on farm lands, providing a valuable service to local people and our local economy, and also be good neighbors. I also believe that it is the job of the Deschutes County Commissioners to find the method that will best enable this to happen. I urge you to listen to the economic facts. The Outdoor wedding business provides a great deal to the local economy, with very limited impact, as it is mainly on Saturdays for four months of the summer. If the amendment passes as written ! understand that the limit would be only 15 weddings per year. If the farms managed do the maximum 15 weddings allowed per season, that is a mere 4% of the days in the year. There has to be a way to make that minimal impact work for the phenomenal economic return to Deschutes County business's, especially in these economic times. Please devote your time, attention, and energy into finding a way to make this amendment workable for all concerned.
