1. <br />June 3, 1986 <br />Steven W. Thatcher, P. E. <br />Director of public Works/Cnwunity Devolopemert <br />City of Mounds View <br />2401 Highway In <br />Mounds View, MN 55112 <br />near Steve: <br />1 am writing this letter as follow-up to our conversations over the past <br />few weeks about the drainage problem on the east end of Louisa Ave. I <br />own the property at 2613 Louisa and have received several complaints <br />from the people renting that property about standing water in the back <br />yard. Examination of the problem has led me to the conclusion that the <br />situation is at least heing compounded by landscaping done by the people <br />at 2617 Louisa. It appears that in the process of sodding the back <br />yard, they have blocked the drainage ditch which should carry the water <br />away from the Louisa residences and into the Wild Area which borders <br />Long Lake Rd. <br />The properties along Louisa have had a history of water problems since <br />the subdivision was built in the early 1970's. The situation was never <br />satisfactory until the drainge into the Wild Area was improved several <br />years ago. Since then, things have been fine until this spring, I <br />believe the water is being backed up by the recent landscaping changes <br />made by my neighbor, however, an inspection of the ditch running behind <br />the Louisa properties may indicate that a clean-up of the area may be <br />in order. <br />I would appreciate your prompt attention to this <br />in my yard is being damaged by the standing water <br />Increased rain may cause flooding in my basement. <br />further help, please call me at 854-7101 during t <br />night. <br />Sincerely <br />( oseph P.
