Peter and Melissa Santrach <br /> • 1700 Bohns Point Road <br /> Orono, MN 55391 <br /> February 21, 2022 <br /> Planning Commission <br /> City of Orono <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway <br /> Crystal Bay, MN 55323 <br /> RE: LA21-000076 <br /> We are writing in strong support of the variance requests by Yardscapes for the property at 1720 Bohns <br /> Point Road,which is adjacent to our home. <br /> The retaining wall in question was likely constructed when the first home was built on the property in <br /> the 1950s.This concrete block wall is visibly failing. Not only is the wall tremendously unsightly, but it is <br /> a potential safety hazard, especially during periods of heavy rain. <br /> Yardscapes' proposal to reconstruct this wall will provide the necessary reinforcement, will greatly <br /> improve the appearance of their property from the lake, and will provide an attractive aesthetic that is <br /> III <br /> consistent with the quality of the home on the property. <br /> We urge the Planning Commission to approve all variance requests pertaining to the reconstruction of <br /> this retaining wall. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Peter and Melissa Santrach <br /> • <br />
