<br />. <br /> August 24, 2005 <br /> Arden Hills City Council <br /> 1245 Highway 96 <br /> Arden Hills, Minnesota 55112 <br /> Dear Sirs: <br /> It is our understanding that homes and/or additions in Arden Hills must be set back at <br /> least lorty feet from the street. Most homes in our neighborhood, Chatham, have raised <br /> entry slabs, and many of those homes have roofs built over those slabs. In some cases <br /> there are roofs across the entire front of the home, making small 'porches.' We're sure <br /> these slabs/porches are not set back forty feet as is now required in Arden Hills. <br /> We have lived in Chatham since August 24,1979. Our house has the raised slab, but not <br /> the roof over. We have many times wished our home had a porch in front. Now we <br /> fmd that we cannot, even though many of our neighbors already have a similar porch. <br />. We really think this is unfair. <br /> We would like to request an exception for the residents of the neighborhood known as <br /> Chatham (Chatham Avenue, McCracken Lane, Chatham Court, Chatham Circle)_ We <br /> would like to see the same rules used just for our neighborhood as were previously (late <br /> 1970's) used by the builder, BanCon Homes (now Hans Hagen Homes). <br /> Thank you very much, <br /> ~~-~L ~ <br /> Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth L. Houston <br /> 1651 Chatham Avenue <br /> Arden Hills, Minnesota 55112 <br /> (651) 636-6658 <br />. <br />
