THCIMAS M.SW SWEENEY, O'CONNOR & LeMAY PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATION ATTS'N .T JAMES J. O'CONNOR JOHN H. LeMAY GEORGE F. BORER Mr. Don Carley Milner W. Carley & Associates 500 West Highway 96 Saint Paul, Minnesota 55112 (612) 2222541 June 28, 1983 Re: City of Little Canada— Mostad Property Our File No. 4588 Dear Don: NORTHERN FEDERAL BUILDING SIXTH AND WABASHA ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA 55102 As you perhaps know, the City of Little Canada is purchasing from Mrs. Mostad, property described in the attached Exhibit A to this letter. This property is a portion of a larger parcel described as "All of Tract A except the north 100 feet of the west 300 feet, Registered Land Survey No. 109, files of the Registrar of Titles, County of Ramsey ". In submitting the description of the property the City is purchasing to the Ramsey County Recorder's Office we were informed by Mr. William Reipe, of that office that they would not accept that description for recording without a registered land survey. I was not clear as to his precise reasons for refusing to record it, but nevertheless his position appears to be firm i- that regard. We have reached an agreement with the seller of the property, through her attorney, John Daubney, that they would split with the City, the costs of obtaining a registered land survey of the new parcel. Mr. Daubney also agreed that we would ask your firm to prepare the registered land survey on our b ,half. I would therefore ask that you contact Mr. Reipe at the Ramsey County Recorder's Office and, inquire as to his specific concerns about the description as proposed and then proceed to have the registered land survey prepared and submitted to them for approval, as soon as possible. I do believe it would be helpful to contact him prior to your commencing work on this project. We would sincerely appreciate your proceeding with this at your earliest convenience, in order that the transaction may be consummated as quickly as possible. s3
