30�5 North Shore Drive
[�9-117-23 32 0H01 Mr . Grocros stated , I received the ncti f ication that my
homestead is still worth something over $145 , P1�0 .
Having been through the whole course last year
including the County Board of Equalizaticn and having
experienced the frustration and futility of this
exercise you may wonder why I am here . I keep
concerning myself with the word equalization . I
discovered last year the smaller your property is the
more your gcing to be appraised for your lakeshore . I
find this unfair . Mayor Butler explained that there
is a fcrmula worked out with 1 building site at so much
per front foot and then as you increase the width of the
property along the lakeshcre the ratio goes down until
you get to a point where you have 2 building sites and
then it goes up. The Ccuncil explained to Mr . Grooms
that he has riparian access to Lake Minnetonka . The
F3oard reminded Mr . Grocros that the County Board will
meet July 11 , 1983 , and he should call ahead to be
placed on the agenda .

Loma Linda Avenue that have a neighborhood problem .

neighbor who is using his property for commercial use ,
a body repair shop. We have called City hall and
complained and have seen no action . He is still
working on cars in his garage , even though he has
cleaned up the outside , there are no longer cars stored
outside in the yard and driveway . Mayor Butler
explained that City hall is aware of_ the problem , but
we do have to gc through legal steps that are clearly
outlined in the state statutes and in the City zcning
ccdes and it is a long process . I ask that you bare
with us , your help could include keeping track of the
level of traffic , signing a complaint , appearing in
court if it gets to that . This is the kind cf
cooperation we need from you to solve the problem .
Mr . Warren Sand .ler stated that they wculd like to be
kept informed of what is being done , we need to be
