<br />April 7, 1995 <br /> <br />City Planner <br />Michael Falk <br />2660 Civic Center Drive <br />Roseville, MN 55113 <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Falk: <br /> <br />This letter is in response to proposed office/warehouse project in Roseville. The <br />planning file number is 2739 and planning file name is John N. Allen. <br /> <br />I am a resident of the neighborhood that will be negatively impacted by the proposed <br />office/warehouse project. I am STRONGLY OPPOSED to this project going up at this <br />location. I live at 3004 Troseth Road. I have two children ages 5 and 8. At this time I <br />can barely let my children play outside and ride their bikes on Troseth Road becuase of <br />the heavy traffic traveling at high rates of speed. Troseth Road has become a cut across <br />for people wishing to avoid traffic lights at either Old Highway 8 or 88. These people <br />generally do not live on this street and have no idea where small children live and play. <br />live just around a sharp curve and these people race around this corner and could never <br />stop if a child were playing near the street. I have actually had people end up in my <br />boulevard because of high speed driving. <br /> <br />My opposition to this project comes from the fact that if it is this bad now imagine how <br />bad it would be with an office/warehouse at the end of the street. With everyone <br />traveling to and from work and going to lunch, we'll be lucky if we ever get to walk on the <br />street we just paid for to be resurfaced, much less to go for a bike ride. The proposed <br />building spot doesn't seem big enough to house big buildings and adequate parking so there <br />will probably be on street parking making it even more dangerous for children. <br /> <br />, have already written a letter to the City of Roseville in regard to the police patrolling <br />this street onc'e in a while to stop these speeders and have gotten a call from one of the <br />policemen. It was a nice friendly call but since that call last October I have yet to see <br />anyone checking on traffic on this street. Nothing has changed except the prospect that it <br />will be worse with this proposed office/warehouse project. <br /> <br />There are plenty of office buildings in Roseville. I see no need to take a nice lot for new <br />homes and turn it into another half full office building with all the headaches that will go <br />along with it. Thank you for letting me voice my opinion. <br /> <br />Lori Carlson <br />3004 Troseth Road, Roseville, Mn 55113 <br />628M9285 <br /> <br />- 1 - <br />
