We have lived ther that long because we live it here. Our neighborhood is quiet and we Know our neighbors. I graduated from Wayzata HS and the U of M. Our son Dave graduated from the Orono I have a great love for Orono. I have tried to give b.cK to this community. I. 2010: Dropped off 2 truck loads of food to th- food shelf at 10CP in Wayzata. This food shelf also serves Orono. 2. 200q: Provided funds for a monument at the L fire hall commemorating deceased and retired firefighters. 3. 2008: Attempted to start a fund for fire fight SecKer who deceased suddenly. This failed as the family did not wan t help. These f nds were transferred to the LL fir e department. 4. 2001: Donated a fire service truck and fire recue boat to the LL fire department to enable this fire department to service Orono nMore completely.. A St Paul company now wishes to convert our historic Hill school into a for profit hospital/clinic/group home [or something IiKe that] to house mentally disturbed young people with eating disorders. I do not want this facility for the following reasons: I. The facility is a commercial operation in a resi ential district. 2. The facility will employ people that my neighbors do not Know. They may not have the same respect for our neighborhood as we do. 3. The facility will increase traffic in an area already congested. I wonder what will happen at shift change with employees coming and going. I hope it is not at rush hour.
