t etA, <br />CoxLEV Brooks, Jr. <br />980 WEST FERNDALE ROAD <br />WA\"ZATA. MINNESOTA 35301 <br />September 23, 1997 <br />. <br />Mr. Robert Floyd <br />960 West Ferndale Road <br />Wayzata, MN 55391 <br />Dear Robert: <br />I have read a copy of your letter of September 11 to <br />the Orono Planning Commission. Without commenting <br />one way or the other on the merits of your arguments <br />in that letter, I would like to make a few <br />observations with respect to the proposed <br />combination of Lot 13 with my 980 West Ferndale <br />property. <br />1, The Lot 13 subdivision/recombination, in <br />my opinion, does not really fit the rather <br />alarmist scenario you portray. The only <br />reason that this change was at all <br />possible was because I owned both 905 and <br />980 at a point in time, and chose <br />essentially to transfer Lot 13 to myself <br />when I moved. No "sale” occurred. If I <br />had remained the owner of 905, I would <br />never have agreed to sell Lot 13 to <br />another party. As the ongoing owner of <br />980, I would also never agree to sell Lot <br />13 to another party. The idea that I or <br />another future owner would either desire <br />or be permitted to do so doesn't really <br />fit the facts of the case. <br />2. From a view and use standpoint. Lot 13 is <br />clearly more logically a part of 980 <br />than 905. When I lived at 905, Lot 13 was <br />rarely given a thought. Living now at <br />980, it is an integral factor for future <br />use and enjoyment (similar in many <br />respects to your thinking about the 20' <br />parcel).
