Zexington .JJ01cling, C.o. <br />Suite 404 <br />2829 UniversHy Avenue S.E. <br />Minneapolis, Minnesota 55414 <br />(612) 331-4486 <br />October 30, 1985 <br />Planning Commission <br />City of Roseville <br />2660 Civic Center Drive <br />Roseville, Minnesota 55113 <br />Gentlemen: <br />Reference is made to your notification that Minnesota Federal Savings and Loan <br />is making application for a variance in the City Code which would permit the <br />applicant to build drive-thru facilities at its location on Lexington Avenue <br />north of Larpenteur Avenue. The purpose of this letter is to object to the <br />granting of this variance. <br />Lexington Holding Company owns and operates the Shopping Center located immedi- <br />ately south of the property in question. The alleyway running east and west on <br />our property would run parallel to the driveway servicing the drive-thru facil- <br />ity as same intersects with Lexington Avenue. Tile traffic from the applicant <br />as well as from our Shopping Center driving east to exit on Lexington Avenue is <br />now quite heavy. With the addition of the drive-thru facility, the traffic will <br />be even heavier and will further complicate the flow of traffic out of our prop- <br />erty (and the applicant's) onto Lexington Avenue. <br />It is possible that the applicant could accomplish its purpose by building the <br />facility on the north side of its building. This would tend to minimize the <br />problems of entering Lexington Avenue from the west. <br />For the above reasons, we strenuously object to the proposal of Minnesota Fed— <br />eral Savings and Loan. <br />Very truly yours, <br />LEXINGTON HOLDING COMPANY <br />• � 1 <br />MEN/mbc M. E. Newman, Partner <br />
