Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, MN 55323 <br />Dear Jeanne, <br />I am writing to you in reference to a notice I <br />received concerning the proposed two lot subdivision <br />of 2490 Old Beach Road. <br />We recently purchased 2480 Old Beach Road in Orono. <br />We purchased the property because of the privacy and <br />’’uncrowded" feel the neighborhood has. If the land owned by <br />Thomas McCarthy is subdivided, it is our feeling this <br />subdivision would not be aesthetically desireable for Old <br />Beach Road. Currently, there are 2 and 3 acre lots accross <br />the street from us, we own 2 acres, as do our neighbors. <br />The property Mr. McCarthy owns is sloped, so that if a <br />home was built on the lot, it would be "sitting on top <br />f us." The subdivision would most certainly have a <br />negative effect on our property value. <br />We strongly urge the City of Orono not to grant approval <br />for the subdivision. We have a beautiful neighborhood! <br />We would hate to see the "patchwork" effect so many <br />neighborhoods suffer from in nearby lake communities. <br />Thank-you so much for your time, Jeanne, As I’m sure <br />you are aware, the outcome of this subdivision holds <br />emotional as well as financial implications for us. <br />Sincerely, <br />Kathy A. Modares <br />2480 Old Beach Road <br />Orono, MN 55391 <br />i
