<br />Page 2 of2 <br /> <br />disappointed to read that the drainage issue would not be resolved. As I review the past correspondence I <br />have regarding this problem I'm disappointed that Tom Peterson is changing his opinion as to what really <br />needs to be done to correct this problem. I have a past memo that was sent to then City Administrator Jim <br />March from Tom Peterson. In that memo Tom did recognize a drainage problem that he felt need to be <br />corrected. Why wasn't it??? The city is responsible for inspecting all lot grading. Why is his changing his <br />mind? It cannot be to save the pine trees in this area, because they are now dying due to excessive water <br />damage. If saving the trees is a priority then maybe the trees should be temporarily removed, the grading <br />re-done, and the trees put back, which is what was done during the Eagle Pass construction. I watched <br />them do this. I fact they forgot to put some of the trees back and left them to die. <br /> <br />As far as the drainage issues I have. I experience standing water every spring due to this problem. This <br />year alone there was standing water from March through mid May. I had to deal with the stench <br />associated with rotting weeds that are now more than 6 feet tall. Misquotes are so dense that it makes it <br />difficult for me to enjoy the back yard that I pay a great deal of money for and continue to pay taxes on, <br />which I might add are still among the highest in the state. <br /> <br />Please tell me that something more can be done! <br /> <br />Thank you! <br />David G Brown <br />1755 Meadow Lane <br />Centerville, MN 55038 <br />651-407-6332 <br />763-689-1212, wk <br /> <br />7/30/2004 <br />
