September 12, 2025 Honorable Senate President Milton E. Potter 36th Legislature of the United States Virgin Islands The Capital Building Charlotte Amalie, U.S. Virgin Islands 00802 Re: Major Coastal Zone Permit No. CZT-08-21(W) granted to Lime Out 2, LLC Dear Honorable President Potter and Senate Members, I am writing to express my strong support for Lime Out St. John/St. Thomas and to emphasize the importance it has brought as a small business to the local community of St. John, USVI. Lime Out is more than just a floating taco bar—it is a unique, sustainable, and thoughtfully operated business that promotes tourism, creates local jobs, and celebrates the vibrant culture and beauty of the Virgin Islands. In a region that depends heavily on tourism, especially eco- and marine-based tourism, Lime Out offers visitors a one-of-a-kind experience that reflects the innovative spirit of the islands while respecting the delicate natural environment. Over the past six years, Lime Out has been a consistent and reliable client of my business, Rock Citees Printing, a locally owned t-shirt and accessory print shop on St. Thomas. I have created countless shirts and hats for Lime Out during this time, and their steady partnership has been instrumental in helping my business grow and remain stable in a market where consistency can be difficult for small businesses. Lime Out has provided reliable orders and timely payments, which alleviates some of the common struggles faced by small businesses in the Virgin Islands. Their support has allowed me to reinvest in my shop, retain staff, and continue serving both residents and other local businesses with confidence. Lime Out demonstrates the positive ripple effect that a well-run local business can have by uplifting and sustaining other small businesses in the community. In conclusion, Lime Out exemplifies the kind of sustainable, community-centered entrepreneurship that we should be encouraging and supporting. I respectfully ask that any considerations regarding its operations be weighed with the full scope of its positive contributions in mind. Thank you for your time and for your continued efforts to support both the environment and the economy of the U.S. Virgin Islands. Sincerely, Dhymond Nicholls
