, <br /> Mary and Michael Drazan <br /> 3546 Ivy Place <br /> Orono, MN 55391 <br /> Melanie Curtis, Planning& Zoning Coordinator <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway <br /> Orono, MN 55356 <br /> August 16, 2008 <br /> Melanie; <br /> This letter is to summarize the outcome of the meeting at our house yesterday, August <br /> 15�'. <br /> Let me first start with background. As part of our variance process we had a survey done <br /> by Acre Land Surveying through our builder, Charles Cudd. After the markers for our <br /> survey were set our neighbors to the north, the Pyles, were concerned because their <br /> survey did not match the markers on our shared lot line. To resolve the issue,we <br /> requested that our surveyors meet with the Pyle's surveyor, Mark Gronberg. Mr. <br /> Gronberg,met with our survey team and John Sonneck from Charles Cudd to determine <br /> which line was correct. At that time it was determined that the best survey to use was <br /> one from 1977 which had been done by Shoen and Mattson for Aurthur Jewett,the <br /> former owner of our property. It was determined as well that further properties to the <br /> north were also involved in the lot line issue. To resolve the issue we requested a <br /> meeting between the other neighbors to the north, the Pyles,the Dampiers and the <br /> Christensens, all surveyors involved, a Charles Cudd representative and ourselves. <br /> We were able to come to a resolution with the Pyles and Dampier's last night. Mrs. <br /> Christensen was able to attend but Mr. Christensen was out of town. Mrs. Christensen <br /> has requested that we meet with her husband when he is back in town Wednesday before <br /> she can agree to the proposed resolution. Understandably, Mrs. Christensen could not <br /> commit to any resolution without her husband reviewing the data as well. <br /> All parties have agreed that the Shoen and Mattson survey from 1977 is the most accurate <br /> survey to use for history in determining our property and the subsequent lot lines. We <br /> also agreed that the proposed lot lines for the neighbors will be adjusted. Our survey will <br /> stand as presented with our variance request. The Pyles and Dampiers are going to have <br /> new surveys done. Mr. Gronberg, their surveyor, has agreed to draft the new surveys for <br /> his customers from the markers sighted by our surveyors. Christensen's resolution will <br /> be determined after the meeting with Mr. Christensen. I have every confidence that the <br /> Christensens will also agree to the resolution once Mr. Christensen is able to review the <br />
