Box 66 Crystal Bay, Mn 55323 RE: STUBBS BAY SEWER PROJECT. �'o Whom it May Concern: I am writing concerning the Stubbs Bay Sewer Project. I live at 398 Leaf St. , in back of 400 Leaf St. I am several hundred feet from the road. My sewer is working fine. I keep it in good maintenance and since I am a one person household, I do not use much water and sewage, I am working, so gone during the week. I`ve been very frugal in using water and sewer. I do not need the sewer like possibly those on East Lake St. or those with lakeshore. I do Not Want Sewer and would like to be Exempt, like several others that are closer and have lots size of mine or smaller lots. I cannot afford to pay $15,000-$20,000 for assesments and hookup, even in payments. And then, I know that is not the end of costs of this project. I say have those fix their systems, keep them functioning properly. Several houses that were built in the area knew at the time that there was a problem, yet they built. The houses on Oxford St. , several of those dwellings have had failing s�Zstems, yet they are not included. Sussex Square ( Fox Bend) is not included. These houses will be large houses with several bathrooms and many people, they are not included eventho the lots are just a few feet from me. Before the field was developed, we had several ponds, this spring I tried to walk across it and water was inches deep in many of the areas, this has drainage that runs into the Bay. Cygnet place, that area drains into the Stubbs Bay through the creek. . . . If we are going to pick a selected few, why nat the whole area??? There are many disgusted people in the area. Even our District � Representative John Burger has placed his house up for sale. Our area used to be a nice area to live in, but with all the progress we are losing our wild life,. country living and making it a hardship for some people to stay in their homes. Litterly forcing those who cannot afford this project to sell or lose their homes. We have the sewer project from one side and the Highway 12 corridor from the other, what sleft to be desired?? We'll be another metropolitan.
