<br />3) Property Value. <br /> <br />We have made many improvements to our home and property in the five years that <br />we have lived here in the hopes of increasing the value of our investment. As all home <br />buyers are, we were concerned about the location of our residence and found Autumn to <br />be a quiet, lightly traveled, tree-lined, residential street. After receiving the letter from Kath <br />Companies and the notice from city planners, I became worried that the intersection that I <br />can see from my yard, would in the not-so-distant future come to look like the intersection <br />at County Road B and Lexington, with the bright lights, heavy traffic, large trucks, and <br />constant activity of the Super America station. This definitely would not increase the value <br />of our property, and should this proposal become reality, we would unfortunately have to <br />seriously consider selling our home before construction began. <br /> <br />Please bear in mind that from the intersection of Lexington and Roselawn Avenues, you <br />only have to drive a few blocks to the north to get to the Super America at County Road B, <br />and a few blocks to the south to shop at the gas station, liquor store, drug stores and <br />restaurants at Larpenteur Avenue. And between those two busy, retail and service- <br />oriented marketplaces, there is a quiet, comfortable, residential neighborhood that <br />stands to be disrupted by this proposed development. <br /> <br />Please consider our position when making your decision about this project. We have <br />informed our neighbors on Autumn Street of the proposal, since they would not have <br />been included in the notice. I am confident that they too will have questions or concerns <br />about this development. Unfortunately, we were not able to attend the meeting offered by <br />the Kath Companies at the Community Center on February 29th, but we are definitely <br />interested in attending any meetings or hearings at City Hall regarding this proposal. We <br />would also be happy to speak to you personally about this matter. <br />Thank you. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />=i~~or <br /> <br />1123 Autumn Street <br />Roseville, MN 55113 <br />488-3098 <br /> <br />cc: Bruce Kath, Kath Companies <br />Autumn Street neighbors <br />
