March 27 , 1998 <br /> 403 Main Street <br /> Elk River, MN. 55330 <br /> Elk River City Hall <br /> 13065 Orono Road <br /> Elk River, MN. 55330 <br /> Dear Sirs : <br /> Although, I may or may not meet all the criteria , I have <br /> been able to meet the only concerns or reasons as to why the <br /> barn cannot be placed there at the present time . The only <br /> 3 reasons given to me by the City are as follows : <br /> • #1 . Water runoff : This possible problem can be alleviated <br /> by placing a small birm around the building and forcing the <br /> water to run to a holding pond . <br /> #2 Easement : In case machinery would need to get in to <br /> work on the ditches . There will be plenty of room for a <br /> very large track-hoe to get in and maneuver . I also own the <br /> land on both sides of the creek all the way so there would <br /> be access iregardless . <br /> #3 Ground water contamination : If this is truly a concern , <br /> I can place a plastic matt underneath the floor. <br /> These are the only issues that the planers could come up <br /> with and I was able to meet each objection with a plyable an- <br /> swer . This is the best spot for this barn as I will be <br /> planting a tree farm this summer plus the location of this <br /> barn will be an area that will be too wet to get into every <br /> Spring. However, I can drive in there on a Class #5 driveway , <br /> so access for a vehicle won ' t be a problem. <br /> Thank you . <br /> Sincerely, <br /> 411 Timothy Smith <br />
