Christine Mattson From: Christine Mattson Sent: Wednesday, September 02, 2009 10:42 AM To: Soren Mattick Cc: Melanie Curtis; Evelyn M. Turner Subject: 430 Stubbs Bay Road N Attachments: admin_ci_orono_mn_us_20090902_105350.pdf Soren, Melanie asked that I document my conversations with Mr. Steve Strobel at 430 Stubbs Bay Road North. You may remember that Evelyn had been corresponding with you regarding this address. The builder, Lane Moore, was told he needed a Flowage and Conservation Easement and Restrictive Covenant and Escrow agreement. Lane did not provide these and sold the house to Mr. Steve Strobel. The city issued a temporary CO but will not issue the final CO until the above documents have been completed. He's had the temporary CO for two years now. Mr. Strobel keeps contacting the City asking for his final CO. When I inform him, verbally and in writing (see attached) he is upset because the: City dropped the ball in not obtaining this from the builder- not homeowner's responsibility City should have stopped him from selling without all the necessary work completed City should require this information from the builder not the homeowner When I told him I was only doing what the City's attorney had advised, he said that Lane tells him we have the escrow money and easement. I asked Mr. Strobel to have Mr. Moore provide us with a copy of the completed documents and proof of payment. I've doubled check with the finance department and don't show any monies received. He has been fairly pleasant until today. I told him I understand his frustration, but cannot issue the final CO until the above documents are completed. Christine Mattson PS I also have several emails into John Smyth at Bonestroo for an update on what the wetland buffers look like. Mr. Strobel says they are done. i
