David and Dianne Rushenberg 3168 Shoreline Lane Arden Hills, MN 55112 651-483-1261 . Planning Commision Members Arden Hills, MN Dear Planning Commision Members: I'm writing to voice my concerns with the various proposals concerning the property adjoining the north side of our property at 3168 Shoreline Lane, Arden Hills. In the past, the council has not listened closely to the neighborhood's concerns about the extension of Shoreline Lane. Several years ago the village's planning committee took on the task of plotting the extension of Shoreline Lane, and told us in the neighborhood, "No, we're not planning on putting the road through, we just need to plat it on the map." Now, we have the urgency on the village's part to extend the road for the well being ofa developer, not necessarily the neighborhood. Are we listening and looking at all the various options available? Mr. Bill Bachman was assured this past fall by the city's manager, that when Bill gave approval for the fue hydrant to be installed at the northern boundary of his property that Shoreline was not going to be extended. Where is that assurance tonight? . This is a multi-level problem; trust in our government has to start somewhere. Let's start here with listening to our concerns and seeking a fair solution; Not "police powers" as stated in the letter dated 01/08/99 to Mr. Frank Reskuski. Except for one casual conversation with Mr. Reskuski last fall that I initiated, we have not heard from these developers. Mr. Don Evertz had said in a conversation last fall that when they had something on paper they would be sharing it with us. We have not heard from either Mr. Reskuski or Mr. Evertz on current plans, we haven't heard from either of them at all. I would be interested to hear what information they have pertaining to their efforts in obtaining access from the neighbors to the South. Since we've not been contacted, what efforts have they made? Are they planning to seek our input, doesn't appear to be important to them. Because of a family emergency, we may be unable to attend the Planning Commissions meeting, but please be advised, we are VERY interested in having our input registered and we feel that the developers have not been open and above board with sharing information with us regarding the property.
