Beverly & Lou Smerling 2552 West Lake of Isles Parkway Minneapolis 55405 may 6 1994 Date: 5/04/94 cc: Jim Cradit cc: City of Orono • I Dear Be\'erly and Lou, This is in reply to your lawyers request for us to meet with him and wur architect on or before May 9th, 1994. to review the plans to be presented at the May 16th, 1994. Orono Planning Commission meeting. I am enclosing a copy ot his letter which I received today May 4th, 1994 1 want to assure you of our desire to have the plans ready for your rev iew as early as May 6th and no later than May 9th as promised in my letter dated April 29th, 1994 Again, I appreciate your overall concern about our home and the time and money already spent on numerous plans As you know, based on our telephone conversation May 2, 1994, we are working hard on all the issues brought up at the last meeting by you, our neighbors and the City Planning Commission. It is our full intention to hopefully resolve the height of the house, the height of the garage and drainage issues which were your main concerns voiced at the last Planning Commission meeting. These changes we feel will have a positive impact on your property and the property of Dr. Carl Shutts the adjacent neighbor to the north. As you know, the fire occurred on December 18th, 1993. That was a traumatic experience for our family Our family of four, w ith two small children ages 8 and 3 have now moved twice and are moving again this weekend. These are also traumatic times especially for our children Natalie and Stephanie. I’m sorry your lawyer feels we may have trouble with our deadlines since you know it is the last thing in the world our family needs. I hope that our meeting on May 16th with the Plarming Commission will yield the approvals w’e seek, since our primary family need at this point is to have our home back Sincerely,
