<br />John & Rosemary Horvei, P.A. <br />992 Tiller Lane <br />Shoreview, MN 55126 <br /> <br />August 31,2007 <br /> <br />Arden Hills Public Administrators <br />Arden Hills City Hall <br />1245 W. Highway 96 <br />Arden Hills, MN 55112 <br /> <br />Attn: James Lehnhoff <br />james.lehnhoff@ci.arden-hills.mn.us <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Lehnhoff: <br /> <br />My wife and I have for 23 years lived at 992 Tiller Lane, Shoreview, just east of <br />Lexington and south of Co. Rd. E. We have been customers of Arden Pharmacy <br />(Arden Plaza) to date and are very pleased with their service. <br /> <br />We object to Walgreens coming in with a "big box" store at the corner of Lexington and <br />Co. Rd. E for several reasons: 1) Arden Pharmacy would lose its lease; 2)big box <br />pharmacies already in place (Cub and Target); 3) traffic congestion and parking at the <br />current complex are bad already; and 4) afternoon traffic is always jammed because a <br />train daily shuts down Lexington and Co. Rd. E during rush hour. <br /> <br />Northern Arden Hills, Shoreview and North Oaks certainly could use a new Walgreens <br />along Highway 96 (I suggest the corner of Hwy 96 and Hwy 10). <br /> <br />The personal relationships by the staff at Arden Pharmacy these past 23 years are <br />important and we consider them "family" when it comes to our needs. I can't imagine <br />that to be the case with the bog box chains like CVS or Walgreens. <br /> <br />I hope you do NOT approve this request by Walgreens. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />John J. HONei/kam <br /> <br />John J. Horvei, P.A. <br /> <br />JJH:kam <br /> <br />cc: Arden Pharmacy <br />3529 N. Lexington Ave. <br />Arden Hills, MN 55126 <br />
