Compatibility with the Downtown Plan which addressed major policy needs in the Downtown Plan Area. Land Use The cart and product will blend very well with the land use of the Downtown Plan area and especially with the Plaza area I will be located. The Oak Street Plaza is a beautiful area with nice shade from the trees and benches for sitting. My product and cart fit in perfect with this land use because it is a refreshing snack that can be enjoyed on a sunny day in Fort Collins. The Plaza is a great area for friends and associates to meet and enjoy the Old Town atmosphere, and my product will serve as a reason for pedestrians to take full use of this great area. Transportation Water Ice is a great product to help promote pedestrian foot traffic because it is a refreshing snack that takes no time to serve, and can have people on their way in no time. This in turn will lead to people strolling around downtown as they enjoy a refreshing water ice, being relaxed and taking in the sites of Old Town. It would be a great dessert to enjoy after a meal at the Hu Hut or Pita Pit which are located just south, or just a refreshing snack that anyone downtown can access and afford during their busy day. There is also a bus stop located at the site that will serve as an alternative means of transportation to obtain a water ice. And being as affordable as it is, all ages can enjoy this snack. This leads to kids either riding their bikes, skateboards, walking, etc. to get a water ice and brings another age demographic downtown. All of this leads to pedestrian foot traffic and alternative modes of transportation to downtown area. Design see attached sheets. Security I will be taking this cart back to the store everyday, and it will be run during daytime hours in a highly populated area. I do not foresee security or crime being a major issue. Parking There is a very large parking lot located just across the street behind the Aggie Theater, and just to the west of the Plaza lays another smaller parking lot. This canlead to more foot traffic for the downtown area, or being a product that is served immediately people can quickly and efficiently get a water ice and be back in there car quickly, having little impact on parking downtown. Either way, I think this will a positive impact on the Downtown Plan Area. Uniqueness of the product Water ice is an extremely unique product not only the area, but to the state as well. It is a refreshing fat -free and cholesterol -free product, and I will also offer a sugar -free product as well. It is a water and sugar based product blended with real fruit that is in turn cooled to an almost frozen temperature that has a texture similar to sherbet. It is served in a paper cup, and is eaten with a spoon. Water ice contains no dairy products which mean that is healthier than a dessert like ice cream. It is more refreshing than filling, and is the perfect snack on a hot day in downtown Fort Collins. Product Water ice is an extremely unique product not only the area, but to the state as well.

The only comparative product that I know of would be a shaved ice or a snow cone. The major difference here is that these products are just crushed ice with flavored syrup added on top. Comparing this product to water ice would be similar to comparing instant coffee to a mocha latte from Mugs. There really is no comparison. It is more refreshing than filling, and is the perfect snack on a hot day in downtown Fort Collins. uali ofE ul lnent This is a brand new cart �'t with no sign on it yet.
