For some, it’s the flavor or the texture, and for others, it’s the childlike wonderment that delighting in candy brings. For those at Michael CHOICE AWARDS READERS’ Mootz Candies, tradition is what gives their chocolate its sweetness. Michael Mootz Candies, located off of the Sans Souci Parkway, has been serving quality chocolate to the com- munity over the past 40 years with the help of 100-year-old recipes. The recent READERS’ CHOICE AWARDS READERS’ pass down of ownership from Michael Mootz to son Jason brought welcomed change, but what remains the same are the recipes, processes and work ethic passed down through generations of professional chocolatiering.

  • Fiscal and Capacity Requirements
    CONSULTANT SERVICES FOR THE GAMING REGULATORY OVERSIGHT AUTHORITY Area 2: Fiscal and Capacity Requirements October 21, 2013 0 Table of Contents 1 Approach By direction of NH RSA 284-A, the New Hampshire Gaming Regulatory Oversight Authority has directed WhiteSand to prepare a report identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the 2013 NH legislative proposals as compared to the best and most relevant components of the regulatory provisions in the other comparator states. This part of the report addresses fiscal and capacity requirements: WhiteSand has approached this particular task using a formal methodology to determine market demand. We reviewed the specific demographics and other attributes of the gaming jurisdiction to be evaluated. This included, but was not limited to, population, income levels, age distribution, nearby competition and gaming tax rates. We evaluated these factors within ranges of 30, 60 and 90 miles of the proposed gaming facility general location. In order to provide a consistent measurement of demographics within a specific region we use distance radii from the region. Using distance rather than driving time eliminates fluctuations due to drive times, day of week, unpredictable events (e.g., accidents, weather, etc.) and other factors. Distance radii are translatable to drive times in most scenarios and provide more consistent results due to the reduction of unpredictability. Using this information, we then identifed a “Competitive Set” for the proposed gaming facility - other gaming properties to be compared based on similar demographics and characteristics. While the properties identified in the competitive set usually do not provide an exact match, they present enough similarities to evaluate market demand and estimate key financial statistics.
