Leopold A. Hauser, III <br />475 North Ferndale Road <br />Wayzata, MN 55391 <br />473-1173 <br />—. <br />To; Oroao Planning Commission <br />1275 Brown Road So. <br />Orono, Minnesota <br />March 18. 1989 <br />iAr-.-;. 1 X'5 <br />Dear Planning Commission Members <br />Unfortunately. I had been scheduled for a speech in Kansas several months ago and <br />therefore will be unable to personally attend your March 20th meeting, which is <br />of great importance to me. <br />However, via this letter, I would like to share with you my concerns and opposition <br />to the proposed subdivision, which you will be considering in Action Item #1326. <br />1. When buying ray property in 1972 from the Bowman family, original owners of the <br />Wayzata Country Club property, I was assured that I would be bordering the golf <br />course with it's view, etc. and therefore positioned my home close to the west <br />line to take full advantage of same. This proposed subdivision would totally <br />reduce my privacy and cars would be going right by my swimming pool. <br />2.As my wife, Helen, and I have arrived at the empty-nest stage in our lives, we <br />have been considering building a small home on the 2 acres south of our present <br />homesite within our current acreage. Therefore any change of bordering the WCC <br />and possible water problems from such a proposed subdivision endangers the build- <br />ability and future value of that area. <br />3, The proposed house site, driveway and circle being so close to my west lot line <br />will push run-off/drainage onto my property. <br />4. The current rough terrain and natural coverage facilitates slow melting/run-off, <br />which with the proposed house, driveway, circle, sewage mounds and any amount of <br />landscaping would be lost and promote fast fast melting/run-off/flooding that <br />would push loads of water all at once onto my property and down into Chevy Chase. <br />Thank you in advance for reading and considering the above during item #1326. If <br />you each knew this area in the spring time as well as my neighbors and I do, you <br />would indeed be sharing the same concerns and opposition as we are to this proposal <br />Gratefully, <br />AJULJ..Q\^
