Thai Buddhist Center of Minnesota <br /> 10863 208th Avenue NW, <br /> Ells River, MN 55330 <br /> July 25, 2013 <br /> To: City of Elk River, <br /> Thai Buddhist Center of Minnesota would like to request the extension of its <br /> Conditional Use Permit or CUP. The temple was granted the CUP in July 2011 and is <br /> now expired. <br /> Our community is still committed to build the addition but the shortage of fund, <br /> due to general slow down in economy in the past two years, has affected the temple's <br /> ability to carry out the construction. However, as slow as it is, we are expected to reach <br /> the financial goal by the end of 2013. In the mean time, the temple has upgraded its septic <br /> tank system to handle heavy use during monthly celebration. Also, our resident monks <br /> and members have prepared the site up to the point that is ready for future installation of <br /> road and parking lot. <br /> As ones can see, our community is moving forward with this plan and would like <br /> to request an extension of CUP for another two years. We are confident that with this <br /> extension we will be able to build and finish the addition. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Wadsa Schneider, (952) 239-5714 <br /> Treasurer <br />
