<br />The variance application did not give consideration to screen plantings or fencing of a sort <br />that would attempt to ameliorate the devastating impact that this proposal would have on us. <br />If this plan is approved, there should be fence screening and sufficient plantings to replace <br />what will be destroyed in construction together with a guaranty, bond, or other adequate <br />assurance of perfonnance. <br /> <br />In our pre-retirement careers as executive directors of the Minnesota Nursery and Landscape <br />Association, we acquired passing familiarity with landscaping specification requirements. A <br />comprehensive landscape design should be put on paper and presented to you with <br />specifications including a description of hard goods, all trees, and other plant material, <br />identified by specific variety and size. <br /> <br />Thank you very much for your consideration of our concerns. If you wish additional <br />infonnation, please call us (488-8008) and we will respond promptly. <br /> <br />Yours very truly, <br /> <br />~ . c.. ~r<v~ <br />Ja es C.
