CITY Of AMES,IOWA
Dear City Council and Honorable Mayor:
Will you please consider adding Entertainment, Restaurant and Recreational Trade to the
proposal you will be voting on July 8, 2008. We, at Ames Racquet and Fitness Center,
feel that adding more fitness facilities and health-related services in the Ames area is a
great asset to the community. We pay sales tax on all of our memberships and are
considered retail sales and services. Our current building qualified for the abatement. By
including health clubs and fitness centers to your proposal,the ordinance would remain
consistent. Ames Racquet and Fitness Center draws a large number of consumers to the
Somerset area on a daily basis, and we would like to expand our facilities to satisfy the
growing demand of the residents of Ames. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
1-
