my name is patrick powell. i'm the owner of bloomers, a retail florist located on washington street and the pacific heights neighborhood of san francisco. it employs eight people. prior to establishing my own business 41 years ago, i was employed by in the union square area. i've been a customer at the san francisco flower market since i moved to san francisco in 1972. it's impossible for me to believe it, but i've been doing business at market for 46 years. as a small business owner, i arrive at the market three times each week, no later than 3:30 a.m. and the other three mornings, i'm at the market by the latest at 6:30. i'm here to say i'm absolutely opposed to the relocation of the flower market to the piers. the limited entrance and exit will create such difficulty not only for the wholesalers but for the florists who rely on obtaining products from the market for their business. i believe this is an ill advised plan. it's not good for growers, not good for wholesaler, and it's worse for retail buyers. col
