Kevin & Deborah Thompson <br />90 Myrtlewood Road <br />P.O. Box 794 <br />Orono, MN 65391 <br />(612) 476-9087 <br />RECEIVED <br />MAR 1 8 1997 <br />CITY OF ORONO <br />March 13, 1997 <br />To the Mayor and City Council of Orono: <br />We have seen the map from the City of Wayzata showing their proposed route for the highway <br />12 expansion. The map does not show our house in it's present state or detached garage. <br />We moved here for the rural feeling and natural beauty of this area. The location of the present <br />roadway is fine but we do not want to see it coming any closer. Obviously, living close to <br />highway 12 there is always the potential for our property to be affected by the expansion, <br />however, we have not seen any proposal since we moved here four years ago showing the road <br />closer to our homo and neighborhood. Our position is the previous plan (alternative plan 6), <br />with some minor adjustments, was better for our community as it had the least impact on <br />private residence of any proposal we had seen. <br />In our opinion. The City of Wayzata knew there were potential plans for highway 12 expansion <br />near their new public works building before they built there. We have no objection to Wayzata’s <br />proposal for a cul-de-sac at the end of our street, providing It is not on our property. We do <br />not want to see our trees on or near our property disturbed and we do not wish to have any <br />sections of our land chopped up just so Wayzata can have more space near their public works <br />building. <br />Sincerely,
