NHD <br />March 5, 1991 <br />To the Honorable Members of Lake Elmo City Council, <br />I am writing you in regards to a proposed ordinance being brought before <br />you concerning park closings. I am unable to attend this meeting due to <br />another commitment and was not made aware of the council meetings agenda <br />until Monday, March 4, 1991, when I received the agenda. <br />The ordinance before you is similar to ordinances adopted by the cities <br />of Bloomington and Hopkins. There are some major differences in the <br />situation before you today, one being the parks in question in these <br />cities are presently for sale and are prime commercial development <br />parcel's. Secondly being that to my knowledge the cities are in favor <br />of a change in the use of the properties. <br />There is law presently within 327c dealing with these issues that enable <br />the municipality to involve themselves with potential park closing at <br />that time. Cimarron is not for sale now or is it forseen to be in the <br />near future, and the owners believe it is presently at its highest and <br />best use in value. <br />I am asking that the city give strong consideration to the proposed <br />ordinance as similar ordinances in Bloomington and Hopkins have yet to <br />be tested through the legal process, and are more immediate situations. <br />There is presently a proposed law which is expected to pass this year <br />that deals with the issue of residents right to purchase a park in a <br />sale that would result in the closing or conversion of a manufactured <br />home park. <br />Thank you for your time and consideration. <br />Sincerely/ <br />(Mnl iel J.
