Background In May of 1993, we contracted with Semler Homes to bud a house at 7300 Terra Court in Lino Lakes, Minnesota. This was the first house to be constructed on this particular cul -de- sac. The original house plan presented to us included a 3 -car garage (see Fig 1.) Fig. 1 Original architect drawing showing proposed home with 3 -car garage Due to financial limitations at the time of construction, several cuts were made to keep the building project in line with our budget. These cuts included, but were not limited to, not installing central air conditioning at the time of construction, eliminating the box window in the living room, eliminating the decorative brick on the exterior of the building, and constructing only a 2 car garage rather than a 3 stall garage (see Fig. 2) r:a0000a i FRONFF- NfEST) EE =TCO I— FILE COPY RECD 1J 1) 1 JAN 1 6 2007 CITY OF LINO LAKP Fig. 2 Architect drawing showing proposed home (home that was eventually built) with 2 -car garage.
