<br />1059 Woodhil1 Drive <br />~03evi11e, MN. 55113 <br />September 10, 1994 <br /> <br />Mayor Vern Johnson & Council Members; <br />City of Rosevi11e <br />2660 Civic Center Drive <br />Rosevi11e, MN. 55113 <br /> <br />Dear Mayor and Members of the Council; <br /> <br />I regret that I will be unable to attend the Monday, <br />September 12 Council meeting and public hearing on the Comprehensive <br />La 11 d Use rIa J:1 . <br /> <br />However, my husband and I want you to know that we strongly <br />support maintainins, in its entirety, the site of the former <br />Lexington Selloo1 at the corner of Lexington Avenue and County <br />Road B as parkland. This parcel of land has been in the pub1~c <br />domain since long before we moved to Rosevi11e thirty-two years <br />ago. Even though the school no longer exists, the interest, <br />demand and pressures for publicly provided open and recreational <br />space do not decline, but actually appear to increase. <br /> <br />Therefore, since the City of Rosevi11e does, in fact, <br />own all of this property as a result of the agreement with <br />Rosevi11e Lutheran Church, and since there is a shortage of <br />open space and parkland south of Highway 36 in our City, it <br />seems that prudent land management requires preserving this <br />total parcel, including that portion currently zoned commercial, <br />as parkland. <br /> <br />We urge you to do so, on behalf of current and FUTURE <br />residents of the City of Roseville. <br /> <br />SinCerelY'~. ~ <br />6~f J3~.. 0 <br /> <br />Dr. & Mrs. James F. Berry <br />
