currently do not have a time frame as to when this may happen <br />and am very concerned that there would not be a legitimate <br />owner or brand that would be willing to take my business <br />knowing that they would not be able to sell in the future. There <br />are many good reasons as to why businesses change hands. I <br />realize the bad seeds simply change ownership when they are <br />shut down due to inappropriate businesses practices. Instead of <br />making a blanket rule of no transferring perhaps there could be a <br />process that allows business to petition the city for an exception <br />when that business is operated within the city legal and licensing <br />requirements. If a business is not operating under these laws and <br />regulations then they lose the right to transfer. <br />In addition, I would like to suggest that you go after landlords <br />who continuously allow shady businesses to lease space in their <br />strip mall. I assure you they know what's going on. If these <br />landlords are fined, they will stop renting to the bad massage <br />businesses. <br />There may also be unintended consequences to your decision. In <br />the future, the 10 remaining massage businesses will all be the <br />bad massage businesses because no legit Massage Business <br />like Elements Massage will come into this market. Something to <br />consider. <br />In conclusion, If this new ordinance were to pass, I would be <br />forced to immediately put my business up for sale so at the very <br />least a new owner would have the opportunity to sell if in the <br />short time remaining found themselves in a position to need to <br />sell. <br />I hope you will strike down this current bill and vote in favor of <br />allowing good businesses to sell whenever that may be. <br />Sincerely, <br />Tom Ketchmark <br />Owner <br />Elements Massage- Roseville <br />Unless restricted by law, all correspondence to and from Roseville City <br />government offices, including information submitted through electronic forms such <br />as this one, may be public data subject to the Minnesota Data Practices Act <br />and/or may be disclosed to third parties. <br />Email not displaying correctly?
