Roundlake Road <br />Arden Hills, MN 55112 <br /> <br />CITY OF ARDEN HILLS <br /> <br />Re: Arden Hills Planning Case 98-33 <br />Josephine East LLC (3183 and 3171 Lexington Avenue) <br />Concerns of Mr. William Bachman, 3187 North Lexington Avenne <br /> <br />Honorable Mayor and City Council Members: <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Our firm represents William Bachman in connection with the Josephine East LLC planning <br />matter which we understand you will hear at your meeting scheduled for March 29,1999. As you <br />likely know, Mr. Bachman resides at 3187 Lexington Avenue N., which is the property immediately <br />north of the subj ect J osephineEast property. <br /> <br />We understand that you will be acting on Josephine East's proposed amendment to the City's <br />Official Map as it is described in Nancy Randall's March 3 memo to the Planning Commission. <br />That proposed amendment provides for a cul-de-sac roadway systern from County Road D north to <br />the Josephine East property and maintaining as a dead end the most southerly end of Shoreline Lane <br />as it travels south from Edgewater Road to the north boundary of the Bachman's property. We <br />further understand that the City Planning Department may be proposing various alternatives to the <br />plan proposed by Josephine East. <br /> <br />Mr. Bachman is extremely concerned about the effect the Josephine East development and <br />any reconfiguration of Shoreline Lane may have upon his property and the integrity of the <br />neighborhood in which he has resided for over 50 years. Mr. Bachman may be unable to attend <br />Monday's meeting, and so has asked that we present to you this letter to advise you of his position <br />in regard to the proposed amendment and the Josephine East development generally. <br />Mr. Bachman's position is basically three-fold: <br /> <br />1. <br /> <br />Mr. Bachman absolutely opposes any extension of Shoreline Lane onto or through <br />his property while he is living there. Mr. Bachman's preference is for no change to <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />N :IPLICGC\53483491.wpd <br />
