Box 368, Elk River, Minnesota 55330-0368 <br /> Telephone: (612) 441-4112 • Fax: (612)441-5176 <br /> April 5, 1999 <br /> Planning Department <br /> City of Elk River <br /> 13065 Orono Parkway <br /> Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> Attention: Mr. Steve Wensman <br /> Dear Steve, <br /> RE: Furniture and Things Warehouse Expansion <br /> We would like to request a variance as we are planning an addition to the existing <br /> building. <br /> The Furniture and Things business has grown to the extent that if the warehouse is not <br /> expanded, it will have a negative impact on delivery to the customers. <br /> There is little car traffic on this site, as the customers shop at the retail part of the <br /> business. Deliveries are loaded at the warehouse during the day. Delivery trucks are <br /> stored off site at night. <br /> This lot was plotted in the past by someone else and is unique in shape. Making a <br /> good use of it will be difficult. A better shaped lot would allow for this addition. <br /> It will have loading docks facing the street. Plans include extra screening to minimize <br /> visual impact. <br /> I see no adverse effects to adjoining property by granting this variance. <br /> Thank you. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> John C. Weicht <br /> Managing Partner <br /> • <br />
