David A. Cannistraci <br /> 2480 Casco Point Road <br /> Orono, MN 55391 <br /> (612) 471-1045 <br /> August 19, 1999 <br /> ;;;� <br /> Lyle Oman <br /> Building Official, City of Orono � � � � ��� 1A�� <br /> P.O. Box 66 <br /> Crystal Bay, NIN 55323-0066 `''`�� ��� �"�`�'"�'� <br /> Dear Mr. Oman: <br /> I received y�ur letter dated August 16, 1999 regarding "Work on Boat House without Building <br /> Permit." I read this letter with surprise. You made reference to a stop work order posted on the <br /> property prior to my purchase. There was no such posting on the structure at the time I took <br /> possession of the property, and I have no knowledge of any subsequent notice. This is the first <br /> communication I have had with the City of Orono regarding this issue. In addition, I am deeply <br /> troubled by your comments implying any association between me and previous owners of this <br /> property. I have no knowledge nor do I need or wish to have knowledge of the activities/ <br /> relationship of previous owners of this property with the City of Orono. <br /> There has been no new construction made to this structure. In order to protect my substantial <br /> investment in this property, maintenance and repairs have been made to the existing structure. I <br /> was unaware and surprised that such repairs require prior city approval. Of course I am willing to <br /> work with the City of Orono to resolve this issue. <br /> You mention in your letter that you would like to meet to discuss this issue. This is acceptable to <br /> me. However, due to my travel schedule I will be unable to meet until after Labor Day, <br /> September 7th. If a meeting at your office is still required, please call me after September 7th to <br /> schedule this meeting. It would be best if you left a message on my answering machine with a <br /> minimum of two days and two different times that you are available (first thing in the morning <br /> ��ou�d wcr;:bcst for;:1�}. I wi:1 szlect the mos� appropriate date and time tha� accammodates <br /> both our schedules. <br /> So that I am fully informed of my rights as a property owner in the state of Minnesota, I request <br /> that prior to any such meeting you provide me with a copy of the official state and municipal <br /> codes and/or statutes that specify in sufficient details the exact repair and maintenance activities a <br /> homeowner in the City of Orono can and cannot perform without obtaining a building permit. <br /> I look forward to speaking with you and the expedient resolution to this matter. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> ��__._..._ <br /> c=c�� �' � <br /> � David A.
