m XOMEWOOD EVELOffMEMTS BESIAH ' BVIEB 4420 Shoreline Drive Spring Park MN SS384 952^71^584 Office - 952-471-0639 Clx MN 11) * 20330592 Stonewood Design-Build, LLC is managing the redevelopment of the two lots located at and adjacent to 4515 Northshore Drive. We are developing plans for replacing the existing home presently at the 4515 address with an exciting new custom home, and the construction of a comparable new home on the adjacent vacant lot. Separate parties are purchasing the two home sites, with both homes being architecturally designed by the Sharratt Design Company of Excelsior. The two lots have always been two separate parcels, with the vacant lot always being considered for a buildable lot with separate sewer stubs, Property Identification Numbers, and tax statements The two parties have applied for Council approval for two variances: • Lot size (cument code requires a variance approval for all lots being redeveloped or build on with less than one acre of area) • Lot width (current code requires a variance approval for all lots being redevelop^ or built on with less than 140 feet of lakeshore) The variances they are requesting approval for are normal, reasonable, and customary. There are no other issues such as hardcover, height, or setback exceptions that are being requested. The lots are adequately sized and appropriate for what they are intending. We are seeking your support and enthusiasm for this r^evelopment. If your personal homestead falls short in either of these two stated requirements (minimal lot size and / or lot width at lakeshore), then your property as well would require this same variance process in the event of a new home proposal on your property. To familiarize you with Storrewood and our abilities, we encourage you to consider taking the time to do any or all of the following; • Call our office for a time to stop by and review our plans and surveys. We are located in the Wells-Fargo Bank Building in Spring Park at 4420 Shoreline Drive (County Road #15). • Attend the upcoming Planning Commission meeting on September 16 at Orono. • Visit Stonewood's two fall Parade of Homes models nearby during the September 7-29 weekends (Thursday -Sunday hours). The homes are at 5958 Hardscrabble Circle (off County Road #44 south of Mound), and 5774 Sunnybrook Circle (SW quadrant of County Road #110 and Game Farm Road). We look fonward to reviewing the redevelopment plans with you. and are excited about Stonewood ’s involvement with these two lots as they are redeveloped. Very truly yours.
