The traffic and demographics generated by a karate studio benefit all the neighboring businesses and should be encouraged. A Heron's View Mktg.

John Fonseca is one of the premier martial arts instructors in the midwest, and is a man of the highest character. This school will be an amazing addition to the Wilmette community.

This dojo would be a nice improvement to the community. It would also improve business in the surrounding businesses, especially restaurants.

The Fonseca run a great dojo, and Wilmette will be the better for granting this permit.

We have been with FMA for over 5 years. It is a first class organization on all levels and I couldn't think of a better addition to our downtown Wilmette. Plus, the surrounding businesses would see a noticeable benefit. I know I would easily spend an additional 3-5 coffee/meal purchases per week with them before, during and after the kids' classes.

This would be a great addition for Wilmette residents -- and the nearby businesses who would benefit from families being drawn to the downtown area.

Our kids attended a few months of the Fonseca program when it was at Redefined. It was the best extra curricular they did, character building, fitness, educational, self-esteem. Would love to see them come back to Wilmette

FMA students and parents would support neighboring establishments.
