I am a proud <br />resident of Little Canada! I love the small town feel but short distance to both Saint Paul and <br />Minneapolis. I especially love the big yard, something that is not very common, unless you <br />live further outside of the cities. I’ve enjoy living at my residence and couldn’t have asked for <br />better neighbors! <br />I purchased my first home (and current residence) here in Little Canada when I was 22 years <br />old. I grew up on a small 32 acre hobby farm so when I came across this house for sale, the <br />beautiful (almost one acre) land was very appealing, among other things. <br />Over the years, I worked many extra shifts so I could be a responsible home owner. I kept up <br />with the exterior as well as the interior maintenance of the property. Finally, in 2022, the hard <br />work and extra shifts paid off and I was able to pay my last mortgage payment. <br />It has been my mission to build a bigger garage once my house was paid off. I own three cars <br />(one is a classic, one is a summer car and one is my primary car) and it would be nice not <br />having to park any vehicles outside, where mice and squirrels try to find their way to nest in <br />them. My father gave me the small family boat before he passed that will be delivered to my <br />house before winter. I also have a riding lawn mower, a trailer attachment to the lawn mower <br />for yard work, other miscellaneous yard equipment, a kayak and a bike that I would like to <br />store. Additionally, I would like to have the attic space for storage. <br />I hope this letter helps you can understand my reasons for the request for a 1500 square foot <br />garage and will approve my request. I would like to have the garage built before winter so I <br />can get everything securely stored. <br />Thanks for your consideration! <br />Kind Regards,
