i <br />\ <br />January 10, 1985 <br />3590 North Shore Drive <br />Uayzata, MN 55391 <br />JAN I 31986 <br />CITY I <br />Dear Mrs. Butler: <br />Last Spring uje uinet <br />Council meetings at the <br />variance to build a 10 <br />o several Planning Commission ai <br />Orono tillage Hall. Ue applied for <br />10 deck. <br />Several weeks ago, we were notified that the owner of the <br />house at 3598 North Shore Drive had applied for a variance. <br />UJhen we arrived at the meeting, another name was on the <br />agenda. The man on the agenda was one of the two men who <br />took the house down and had applied for a variance as he <br />intended buying the property and building a house to sell. <br />What I would like to know is why Orono hasn't enforced their <br />condemnation order? On June 21, 1985, the building was <br />condemned. Why wasn't it enforced and removed within 60 <br />days? Now that the top of the house Is gone, when will the <br />rest of It be removed? The rotten floor and caving-in <br />foundation can be hazardous to anyone accidently going over <br />there. <br />1 don't want to take any credit away from the two young men <br />who tore the house down, but have you driven by and seen <br />what It looks like now? Please do! How can the lot be sold <br />while it is in the middle of being condemned? How can <br />someone attempting to buy the lot apply for a variance to <br />build on a lot that is only !)0 feet from the lake and is too <br />close to the road to build, and before it is even purchased? <br />While we haven't finished our remodeling yet, we don't have <br />debris and junk laying all over our yard. Last year when our <br />contractor dug our foundation and some of the dirt rolled <br />Into LeBreshe's yard, we were reported and construction was <br />halted until one yard of dirt was removed from their yard of <br />weeds. Have you ever tried to have a nice yard and garden <br />when on either side of you the weeds get cut once a year? <br />For 23 1/2 years we have had to look out at this decaying <br />house that wasn't fit to live in. Everytime a window or door <br />was broken, I was accused of it. Before the road was posted <br />with no parking signs, our guests would be arrested by the <br />Orono police when the LeBresh's would say they were blocking <br />their driveway, even though they didn't have a driveway.
