Smedberg <br />P.O. Box 590 <br />Excelsior, MN 55331 <br />Dear Mr. Smedberg; <br />Re: Biq Island Property <br />Having had discussions with you, with Eugene Nelson, and with <br />Judy Frommes of Century 21, it appears necessary to review the <br />history of the Big Island property and reiterate the City's <br />position on Record Lot #16. <br />1. <br />^.V <br />After the RS Seasonal Recreational zoning regulations were <br />established on December 30, 1982, a letter was sent to Mrs. <br />H.R. Nelson, Mrs. Victoria Arneson, and Vivian Nelson (the <br />first two living at the same address) dated February 15, <br />1983, informing them of the proposed Record Lot deter- <br />minatio*!. At that initial contact. Record Lot #16 was <br />considered to include Lots 6, 7, and 8, Morse Island Park <br />(owned by Victoria Arneson); plus all of Lot C, Morse Island <br />Park (owned by Mrs. H.R. Nelson); plus half of Lot 7, Morse <br />Island Park Second Addition (owned by Vivian Nelson). No <br />portion of lakeshore property was included in Record Lot #16 <br />since the abutting lakeshore strip was owned by Eugene Nelson <br />as part of Record Lot #22. <br />2.On March 27, 1983, City Planner Alan Olson discussed the <br />record lot determination with Victoria Arneson. She stated <br />that she had no problem with combination of her lots with her <br />mother's lot (Lot C) as long as she couuld still build on her <br />Lots 6, 7 and 8. Victoria and Alan agreed that the most <br />likely location for a new cabin would be on Lots 6, 7, and 8 <br />rather than at the site of the old cabin on Lot C. Alan <br />noted that under the combined Record Lot #16, a new cabin <br />could be built on Lots 6, 7, and 8 and at the time the <br />building permit is requested, a decision would have to be <br />made whet-ier to keep the old cabin on Lot C as a guest house <br />or tear it down. <br />UNG k ZONING - 473-7)57 • <br />ASSI SSIVG <br />ADMIVSTKATION & I ISa NCI - 473-735«HI BMC VkijHKS 4T) 735V
