r MIMMOOMKIX COT^R fOirO Of Am /IMD eDUCKTOI 0 (A NON-r’BOftl OBOANiZAllON) €Jf Mr. A. P. 01son» City Planner Mr. Tom Kuehn, Finance Director City of Orono P. 0. Box 66 Crystal Bay, Minnesota 55323 Dear Sirs, Attached is an application for a conditional use permit and a check for $50.00 to cover the fee. The Minnetonka Center of Arts and Education is faced with a problem of insufficient space and inadequate facilities to meet the demand of its students and members. Its concept of service, flexibility, adaptability, timeliness, effective ness, efficiency and economy are severeljr handicapped. In order to remedy this situation the Center plans to remodel its existing main building and to build an attached addition to the main building which will include space for a pottery studio, sculpture studio, a painting studio and additional office space. While the plan does envision additional student enrollment the main thrust of the building program is to make available more adequate facilities to our presently enrolled students. Per your request attached are 20 copies of the Architect's sketch showing use and location. The Center has employed the firm of Hammel, Green and Abrahamson, Inc. as its architect, well known in the twin cities with a fine reputation. The Center has also engaged the firm of Lovering Associates as the prime contractor, also with a fine reputation. The Center hopes the City of Orono will approve this contional use permit as soon as possible as in the case of all schools it is limited in time to schedule the renovation and building during the coming summer while classes are not in session. Building is estimated to begin mid-June of this year. We look forward to a fine relationship with the city, as we have experienced in the past. Sincerely, Eileen M. Hock Executive Director P.O.
