Wayzata, Minnesota <br />Our File No. 445482.0001 <br />Dear Jim: <br />I telephoned you on April 25, 1994, and followed that phone call up with a letter <br />inviting vou and the Buceys to get together with Mrs. Smerling. Bruce Schmidt, her <br />architect, and possibly myself as soon as possible to discuss the proposed house for the <br />Buceys’ lot on Casco Pointe Road. You told me that you and the Buceys were in the <br />process of drawing plans, that you thought it would be more beneficial to meet with us <br />after you had drawn vour new plans, and that you would meet with us as soon as your <br />new plans were ready. <br />Apparently, you have a time deadline with Orono of May 9, 1994, for the May 16, <br />1994, Orono Planning Commission meeting. In view of your deadline, we are hopeful <br />you can either meet with us promptly this week, with your plans complete, or better yet, <br />meet with us before vou spend any time and money on new plans so that we can ^alk lO <br />each other about ameliorating the conditions originally proposed. <br />Obviously, we have "a chicken and the egg" problem here. In general, you <br />understand that with the variances you request, the building previously propsed for the <br />Bucey lot is burdensome in the extreme to the Smerlings and their adjacent property. <br />Therefore, in general, the amelioration of the situation is to make the Bucey building <br />smaller and lower so as to reduce its negative impact on its adjacent neighbor. It is <br />difficult for Mrs. Smerling to specify in what fashion you could precisely ameliorate your <br />structure without having some understanding of what changes to y ur original plan you <br />now propose.
