Well, this is a rather big isue for my friend (and hopefuly future buisness partner) Paul and I. For a couple of years now we ahve been dwelling and planing on the idea of going to school and later opening up, well, a unique place of buisness. Now the ball is finaly rolling and we are preparing to go to tech school, probubly UTI. Our idea is after we are done with school and have some knowledge and skills, we want to open a place similar to the police vehicle training lot in St. Pete where Nasa-X dose autocross events. Aprox 2 acre lot along ulmerton that belongs to my friends parents, may be the location of our future buisness.
The first step to our idea would be to pave all or most of the area so we can begin alowing small events to take place there (autocross, drifting, ect.) Now the problen that lies there is zoning. How hard can it be to get zoning for such a place of buisness? Now mind you that there is a machine shop (Heniflet Precision Products) that runs late at nite there but i can imagine that tires howling outside would be much more noticable. Is there a petition that we can make that would actualy pose as some kind of proof that this idea would help keep drifting off the streets and into a safe legal invoronment? It seems there is nowhere in P.C. to do this.
Then much later we hope to start a shop and mabey our own line of products.
Didnt know where to put this so feel free to move if you think it will gain more attention there.
I know there have been similar threads to this but this is searious, Paul and I are dedicated to persuing this dream.
Sorry for the long-winded post, but there is simply too much to say at the time about this. I realy need input from all of you who would seariously consider help in the making of this. All I need is legal info, ideas, thoughts, constructive critisism, other questions that should be asked, ect...
Thank you all so much for reading this and thanks in advance for your input. I know you all can help.
