Dear Ms. Dunn,
We have considered several possibilities for the expansion of
our New Hope production facility. Two of the proposals analized
provide the necessary additional capacity needed. It would be
our intent to pursue one of these options.
The first possibility would be to double the size of the
existing facility. This could be accomplished by expansion
to the west of the current building.
The second option would be to add approximately 50,000 sq. ft.
of warehouse space to the north of the existing building and
increase the height of the iow ceiling northeast warehouse to
match that of the main plant.
With either proposal, expansion would be to the west or north,
and not toward the residential on the east. Additionally, the
remaining east dock doors and the northeast packaging warehouse
dock doors would be eliminated. This will eliminate the truck
traffic on the east side of the building adjacent to the
residential property. All the truck traffic would be confined
to the south and west.
Our analysis indicates a preference for the first proposal with
expansion to the west. If this is not possible then we would
have to impliment the second option and expand to the north and
increase the height of the existing warehouse.

Ms. Dunn
The expansion currently being proposed would require the
addition of more employees. We have been pleased with the
high skill level of employees from the New Hope area. These
highly automated production systems require this type of
skill level for their operation.
We would appreciate the comments and input of you and your
staff regarding this project. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
THE CREAMETTE COMPANY
