Robert WilImus Robert WilImus Homes 2932 Hamline Ave N RosevilleMN 55113-1611 July 30, 2006 City ofRoseville 2660 Civic Center Drive Roseville MN 55113-1899 RE: (PF3676) 2959 Hamline Ave, Mounds View Redevelopment Members ofthe City Council and Planning Commission, As some of you may know, my parents, Tom and Rita Willmus, and grandparents, Ed and Geraldine Willmus, have played a very active role in the development of Rose vi lie over the years. Mr. Paschke, in his report even gives mention to a couple of their smaller projects in this area ofRoseville, Hamline Terrace and Snelling Terrace Apartments. Other properties within this area ofRoseville would include Hamline Shopping Center and The Hamline Office Building located at 2845 Hamline Ave N. I would like to see the property at 2959 Hamline developed in one of two ways: I. As an Office Building consistent with the current wning of B-1 Limited Business. Believe it or not this use would fit quite well with the existing area. It would be the same type of use we have experienced over the past 30 + years. For years the Hamline Office Building filled a need for local office space. Our tenants included Doctors, Lawyers, Insurance Agents, Accountants, Financial Planers and many other professionals. What we found over the years was that the vast majority of our tenants lived within Roseville. With Presbyterian Homes now owning and occupying 90% of the Hamline Office Building, there is a need for more office space in this area. 2.
