Beck <br />Beck Law Office <br />4746 Sheridan Avenue South <br />Minneapolis, MN 55410 <br /> <br /> RE: HILLSTOP WOODS ESTATES, SECOND ADDITION <br />20655 VICTORIA NW, ELK RIVER, MN <br />Linda Schultz Lot Split Application <br /> Our File No: 32012.001 <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Beck: <br /> <br /> I represent Linda Schultz, who is a co-applicant in the above-referenced matter. <br /> <br /> After reviewing the key documents concerning the proposed lot split and the meeting <br />minutes that reflect the concerns of the neighbors, I have advised Ms. Schultz that the Elk River <br />City Council has a reasonable basis to approve the lot split application as proposed. <br /> <br /> The chief objection of the neighbors is a concern about increased traffic on Victoria <br />Drive from the development of additional lots. They also point to the original Development <br />Agreement as a legal bar to the lot split. But, neither is a reason to deny the application. <br /> <br />1. The lot split will create only one new lot, upon which only one single-family <br />residence will be built. The traffic generated from one home will hardly create a <br />traffic congestion or safety problem; and <br /> <br />2. The 1993 Development Agreement is no longer legally effective to block this lot <br />split, which does not require Victoria Drive to be lengthened or substantially <br />changed from its original and approved design. The 1993 Development <br />220 South Sixth Street <br />Suite 2200 <br />Minneapolis, MN 55402-4504 <br /> <br />Phone: 612-339-6321 <br />Fax: 612-338-0535 <br /> <br />felhaber.com <br /> <br />
