MN 55113 <br />Mr. Timerson, <br />I spoke with you earlier this week about the possibility of expanding two existing ponds <br />located in a MN/DOT easement for use in a proposed mixed-use development near the <br />rwrthwest quadrant of U.S. Highway 12 and Willow Drive in Orono. You responded <br />with a phone call stating that typically MN/DOT does rx)t reach this type of agreement <br />with private developers, but would be receptive to a proposal from the City to expand <br />the ponds as long as they are designed to accommodate all drainage from surrounding <br />developments that may enter the ponds in question, and that maintenance and <br />construction responsibilities are transferred to the City or their representative. <br />I would Just to take the time to thank you for your response and notify you that we will <br />be pursuing this issue with the City of Orono in hopes that it agrees that the use of <br />these porKis is beneficial to the proposed development aiKl surrounding area and will <br />take the proper steps to get MN/DOT approval for these actions. If 1 have, in any way. <br />misunderstood or misinterpreted your phone call or if you have any questions in general <br />about this issue please feel free to contact me. Thank you. <br />Sincerely. <br />LANDFORM <br />hris Cunningtbn. <br />jt .r-' ■' ■ <br />ff ; j <br />URSTAVCNUC north MINNCAROLIl.
