Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, MN 55323 <br />Dear Mayor Callahan: <br />This letter is in regard to the Public Hearing on the closing of Old Beach Road, <br />on April 24, 1995. As you may be well aware there is a petition circulating and <br />many of the Tonka Bay citizens have contacted the Tonka Bay City Council <br />members. With this letter I am relaying a message from our citizenry that they <br />are greatly displeased with the closing of Old Beach Road. <br />I personally have lived in the community since 1955 and have used Old Beach <br />Road for the last 40 years. I believe the road to be a . .al short cut that allows <br />me to avoid the "15 and 19" intersection. I understand that the few people that <br />live on Old Beach Road want the road used less. <br />We had a similar situation in Tonka Bay, where the citizens living on Birch Bluff <br />Road wanted the road closed to the public, or have speed bumps installed. As <br />a Council member serving the community it was our responsibility to keep the <br />road open. Because it was to the benefit of our community, not those specific <br />individuals living on that road. <br />I intended to be present at the hearing on the 24th, however I have a previous <br />engagement, and I am unable to attend. With this letter it is hoped that you will <br />have time to review my comments and reflect upon my suggestions. <br />If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at 474-6729.
