September 2, 1986Orono City Council 1335 South Brown Road <br />P.O. Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, MN 55323 <br />Dear City Council Members: <br />We live on Highway 12 next to the property that is proposing a day-care and <br />nursery school No. 1062. We are just on the west side of the Luce-Line Trail. <br />This is my opinion: 1. It is very poor judgement to put this type of <br />facility on Highway 12 because of the operating time. Highway 12 is heavily <br />traveled, very dangerous and overused. The freeway comes to an end just <br />before this property and as we well know, the traffic does not slow down <br />even though the speed limit is posted at 45m.p.h. (which is too high) <br />You should check with your own police department on this matter. The accident <br />rate is high and there have been a lot of near-collisions. <br />2. On this property, there is no access to sewer or water and in the near <br />future they will request sewer and water at the expense of the city (plus <br />extra road care) and the nearby landowners. <br />3. Being a landowner bordering this property, we should have been notified <br />rather than seeing a sign posted on the property and I don't believe it is <br />properly zoned for a school. <br />Sincerely, <br />Eugene J. Bouley <br />915 West Wayzata Blvd. <br />Wayzata, MN 55391 <br />cc: Long Lake City Council <br />Orono Police Chief-Mel Kilbo
