and legally described as follows, to wit:
Lots 53 & 54 W D Foulke 54 Sq Ft SE COR Lot 54
(Drawing attached as Exhibit A)
as a R-3 One to Eight Family Residential District;
Whereas, it is desirable to change the above described real estate's zoning designation to

scrapbooking retreat and a bed & breakfast.
Whereas, the parking area must be developed to accommodate a minimum of 16 cars;
Whereas, final parking arrangements must meet the approval of the Richmond Traffic Division, the
Department of Public Works and Engineering and the Planning Office;
Whereas, an easement agreement must be in place allowing access from 2116 East Main Street to
2110 East Main Street if either of the properties were to be sold;

Whereas, any change of business plan that alters the nature of the business, particularly in regard to
customer traffic, would require an amendment to the rezoning ordinance;
Whereas, the project will need to be filed with the State of Indiana and would require a local
Certificate of Occupancy because it is a change of occupancy classification;

1. the owner of the parcel;
2. a subsequent owner of the parcel; and
3. a person who acquires an interest in the parcel; and
