�J/e �n�ercuriter� <br />DIV. T. U. I., INC. <br />310 N. SNELLING AVE., ST. PAUL, MINN. 55104 <br />(612) 646-8836 <br />Sept. 14, 1977 <br />City Council Re: Restaurant at 235 E. Little Canada Rd. <br />City of Little Canada Little Canada, Minn <br />Little Canada, Minn. 55117 <br />I, William Westerhoff, , am the owner of the restaurant facility <br />located at 235 E. Little Canada Rd. <br />This restaurant has been operated under 4 different names and <br />has experienced A bankruptcies under each of those names. I <br />am the 5th operator (and owner) of this restaurant and have no <br />intention of allowing myself to be the 5th bankruptcy. <br />I am firmly convinced that among other things, the restaurant <br />is very poorly signed and as a direct result has not experienced <br />the business it should have experienced. The sign is too small <br />to be easily read from the highway (E-35) and is not high <br />enough so that it can be read due to the surrounding terrain. <br />My intent is to erect a sign not to exceed 60' on the sight <br />of the present sign with a sign face area not to exceed the <br />code limits. This will allow a readable message from a great <br />enough distance on both the northbound and southbound lanes of <br />the freeway (E-35) enabling travelers to turn off on the exits <br />to Little Canada Road. <br />Because the requested height exceed the limits as established <br />by the City of Little Canada, I am requesting this variance. <br />I feel it is absolutely necessary for the prosperity of the <br />restaurant, it was agreed to by the the planning commission <br />of Little Canada (unanimously) , and the request is within <br />reason in view of the variances already given to both Texaco <br />and Mobil for their signs in the same general location on <br />Little Canada Road. <br />Many thanks for your consideration, I remain, <br />William Westerhoff <br />CLERK'S EXHIBIT NO. 1 2 31 <br />MEETING-9-14-?7 <br />
