Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay Road <br />Orono, Minnesota 55323 <br />Hr. Benson: <br />1 have recently been Infonwd that Parkview West Is negotiating with the <br />Orono Planning Board for a peralt for an adolescent inpatient treataent center. <br />The Intent of this letter Is to lend my support to Parkview West s endeavor. <br />Not only an I a resident of the cosnsmlty that Parkview West serves but <br />an also a school counselor who has utilized the services of Parkview West. <br />My experience with the staff and program at Parkview West has been exceptional. <br />The quality of their staff and the program has been an asset to this community <br />and to the persons It has served. Additionally the program and staff have <br />been available to provide services to the community at large and to the school <br />systems which I believe extend beyond the ordinary. <br />As late as last year 1 was asked to Join the advisory board. Until that <br />time I had refused to Join any advisory board. 1 agreed to Join this advisory <br />board as I saw that their program Is designed to serve the community In a <br />supportive fashion and Is an asset to the community. <br />I believe that the addition of such a program to the Orono community <br />would provide a positive model for the community as well as direct service <br />to the needs of the comminlty and that the quality and caliber of the staff <br />at Parkview West could provide programs With some positive outcomes for your <br />community. <br />Sincerely, <br />ojuf <br />Gary Swedberg r <br />C.D.
