Cheryl R. Becker <br />11452 197th Avenue <br />Elk River, MN. 55330 <br /> <br />Planning Department <br />Elk River City Hall <br />PO Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN. 55330 <br /> <br />RE: P96-1 Project (Mennards) <br /> <br />Attention Debbie Kleckner, Steve Ach, and Council members, <br /> <br /> I would like all this information to go into the packet for <br />the council members for the March 11, 1996 meeting concerning the <br />P96-1 Project. <br /> <br /> I was at the public hearing on Feb. 27th regarding this new <br />project and had to think about all that was happening. My back <br />property line is the same property line for the project. My home <br />sits off the south side of 197th, half way along the back property <br />line and only 30 feet from the back property line. <br /> <br /> I own and operate my licensed daycare business out of my home <br />and have done so for 10 years. These are my concerns: <br /> <br />1. The state will require me to put in a fence along my back <br />property line for the safety of the children. <br /> <br />2. Since a sidewalk along the "PARK" will be put in, I am concerned <br />with strangers walking along with access to ~y property and it <br />isn't safe with child abductions and children wandering off or <br />following people. <br /> <br />3. I need it quiet for nap times and I want the children to be <br />able to play in the back yard safely without the worry of them <br />disappearing. <br /> <br />4. The school bus stops at the end of my driveway 5 different <br />times during the school day to pick up and drop off 5-6 children. <br />I am concerned with their safety with the increased traffic flow. <br /> <br />5. For myself and family I will no longer be able to have a <br />barbeque or sit on my deck with privacy and people can look in <br />and see what I have with easy access to the property therefore <br /> <br />I feel I am in jeapardy with burglaries, and crime, and vandalism. <br /> <br /> <br />
