Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay. MN 55323 <br />Re: Land Use Application #2109 <br />Todd Smith Family, 1380 Arbor St, Crystal Bay <br />Dear Planning Commission Members <br />My wife and I wish to express 100% support for the project that Todd Smith is <br />proposing for his property across the street and down a few houses from our home. <br />Other commitments prevent us from being at the meeting personally; however, we <br />hope this letter of support will be acceptable to the Commission. The Smith ’s have <br />already done wonderful things and worked very hard to improve their property and <br />now seek to make this cha ge to enhance their living arrangements. The changes will <br />be an improvement for their home, and will be a great irnprovernem for our small <br />neighborhood and for Orono itself. <br />Crystal Bay is unique in Orono, since the lot sizes are quite small and all the <br />properties were develop^ prior to any aggressive zoning regulation. We agree that <br />plans to develop in neighborhoods such as ours or Navarre should be looked at for <br />suitability to the property and to the surroundings. We believe the Smith ’s plans satisfy <br />any concerns that might be raised, especially since the framework for the design <br />already exists. <br />We believe good neighbors such as tfie Smith ’s should be encouraged in their <br />desire to improve their home, because such improvement benefits the immediate <br />neighborho(^ and Orono as a whole. Please look at the plans carefully and then give <br />your unanimous recommendation to the City Council for their plan to be accepted. <br />Thank you for this opportunity to express supped for Todd ’s plan. <br />Gregory and Jullanne Peterson
