March 7, 1997 <br /> <br />To: The Members of the Elk River City Council <br /> <br />Dear Council Members; <br /> <br />On March 6 we were informed of a moratorium on new construction in our area. We are <br />currently in the process of planning and design of a new addition to our property that is located at <br />11061 173rd Avenue NW (behind Bridgeman's). This addition is planned as a permanent, free <br />standing, steel frame, steel building which will match the appearance of the existing structure. <br />The addition will add 5525 square feet of work space and will be positioned on the property in <br />the same approximate area as the planned second building in the original Cody Square design of <br />1987. <br /> <br />This building is being designed to allow immediate city sewer and water hookup when it <br />becomes available. The existing fresh water well is adequate and will be used as a water source <br />until that time. The plan also calls for two holding tanks for gray water and two tanks for waste <br />water and sewage. These tanks will be pumped as needed. When City sewer service is available, <br />the two waste water/sewage collection tanks will be cleaned and converted to gray water <br />collection tanks. In addition, hookup for overhead fire suppression sprinklers will be installed to <br />accommodate immediate fire truck hookup and future city water hookup. <br /> <br />This planned addition to the property is essential for the success of our respective businesses. <br />Both businesses are active in the Elk River Chamber of Commerce and we support several <br />community and youth activities. The inability for us to expand and build our new addition this <br />Summer will severely limit the success of both businesses and the 12 families that are supported <br />by employees of either Deano's or Precision Frame. <br /> <br />As active members of the Elk River business community, we respectfully request an exception to <br />the moratorium be granted for us to move ahead with our building plans for this Summer. <br /> <br />Respectfully, <br />:rd~/a'¢o~mtsc'~n, P resident <br />Precision Frame & Alignment, Inc. <br /> <br />Thomas Wistrom, President <br />Deano's Collision Specialists, Inc. <br /> <br />Cheryl Wistrom, Vice President <br />Deano's Collision Specialists, Inc. <br /> <br /> <br />
