FRENCH <br />SUPERmTENOENT <br />#444 October 6, 1978 <br />MO® <br />Hr. Walter R. Benson <br />City Administrator <br />City of Orono <br />Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, MN 55323 <br />XT i-) <br />ORONO. <br />Dear Dick: <br />A short time ago, I spoke to you regarding the waiver of the <br />City's application fee for processing the District's request <br />ror vacation of roads within Kate B. Plummer's Subdivision <br />located on the west Island, Big Island. As you know, this <br />property was purchased by the District a few years ago when <br />the intention was to eventually acquire the entire Big Island <br />area as a regional park. <br />On March 8, 1978, the District's Board of Commissioners <br />officially established boundaries for Big Island Regional Park. <br />These boundaries were established after considerable discussion <br />and review, including a joint public InfonnatPon meeting held <br />with the City of Orono in February of 1978. The proposed park <br />will be located entirely on the eastern Island. Since the parcel <br />located on the western island was no longer within the proposed <br />boundary, the Board declared this land surplus and authorized the <br />Superintendent to-petition District Court for approval to sell <br />this property. <br />Subsequently, an acquisition was negotiated whereby the District <br />would trade its ownership on the west island for property located <br />within the proposed park boundary on the east Island. Included In <br />this negotiation was the stipulation that the District would attempt <br />to have the roads vacated on the surplus property located on the <br />west island. <br />The District Board feels that in view of the heavy expenditures <br />the District is making to acquire parkland on Big Island that Orono <br />could show Its interest in this project by waiving the fee. <br />Thanks for what you can do in getting this requested granted. <br />Sincerely, <br />(UU <br />CEF:ghd <br />Clifton E. French <br />Superintendent and <br />Secretary to the Board
