<br />Page 5 <br />Date: May 24, 2007 <br />To: City of Arden Hills Planning Commission and City Council <br />% Mr. James Lehnhoff, City Planner <br />Re: Celestica Parking Lot Addition - 4300 Round Lake Road West, Arden Hills, MN <br /> <br />City's last major development site. The existing development occurred because it satisfied the <br />objectives of the Gateway Business District. <br /> <br />6. The variance is not for economic reasons alone. <br /> <br />Response: The need for the variances is due to circumstances beyond the control of the <br />landowner. <br /> <br />7. The proposed use is permitted within the zone. <br /> <br />Response: The proposed accessory parking use is permitted within the Gateway Business <br />Zoning. <br /> <br />We look forward to meeting with the Planning Commission and City Council to discuss this minor but <br />very important project. We are confident that we have addressed the concerns and responded to the <br />variance findings to justify moving ahead with the project. We eagerly anticipate the ability to <br />construct this parking lot addition in 2007 and to provide an important improvement to the existing <br />Celestica site in Arden Hills. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />ProTerra Design Associates, Inc. <br /> <br />~4~ <br /> <br />Alan A.
