Gordy & Diane Torres <br />1512 Briarknoll Drive <br />Arden Hills, MN 55112 <br />City of Arden Hills <br />Megan Beekman - City Planner <br />1245 W Highway 96 . <br />Arden Hills, MN 55112 <br />June 18, 2008 <br />Re: 1518 Briarknoll Drive variance request <br />Arden Hills City Planning Commission: <br />Our wish is to make it publicly known that we are stoutly opposed to the variance request that has <br />been applied for by Nick and LeAnne Walker at 1518 Briarknoll Drive. We are neighbors to the <br />Walker's immediate east. It is understood that if approved this would bring a 46 foot long, 22 <br />foot high structure within five feet of our west property line. The negative impact this would <br />have on the property value of our home would be financially destructive to us. <br />The property at 1518 Briarknoll Drive is an `ordinary' 100' x 130' lot of which there is nothing <br />that would uniquely require the property owners to have no other choice in their construction but <br />to build up to the five foot city easement on the east side of their property. <br />We believe that the property owners have numerous alternative options in their build plan rather <br />than to bring a structure of this magnitude within five feet of our west property line. There is <br />more than enough footage in the rear of their property to extend the proposed garage to the south <br />opposed to the east. <br />We searchingly question and find it impossible to calculate how the property owners' <br />professional figures submitted to the city can in fact add a third one car garage stall and garage <br />door by adding only 5'10" to the addition of their current garage. <br />We have taken pride in our neighborhood for 23 years. We believe it would be against any good <br />judgment to approve the variance request for which the Walkers have applied. <br />If you have questions or would like to discuss this further please feel free to call us at 651-633- <br />7764. <br />Thank you, <br />Gordy Torres <br />&(alt -C NJAA-,P,� <br />Diane Torres <br />
