Although we respect the right of Falcon Heights to be different, surrounding <br />communities allow much more flexibility in height limitations. The City of • <br />Falcon Heights has the most restrictive limits compared to other communities <br />in the East half of the Twin City Metro area. Please see attached report of <br />community height codes. <br />• If newly built homes are not able to be of comparable type those that are <br />being constructed in adjacent communities they are placed at a competitive <br />disadvantage. <br />We are quite sensitive to the fact that there has been considerable controversy over <br />the development of the property surrounding the lot on which we plan to build. <br />Several current homes are not of the same standard as the older homes in the area <br />and has caused strife for both the city and the neighbors. We too regret that there has <br />been some compromise in the quality of the homes permitted. <br />We would like our request for a conditional use permit to be judgedlnn eneral n It isrour <br />and not to rekindle old grudges about development of the property ' g <br />hope that the council will see that our home obviously has no objectionable <br />characteristics, and in fact will improve the value of the neighborhood. <br />• <br />Respectful) submitted, <br />Kevin C.
