UM JLN DEVELOPMENT, INC. 1045 Rirr Slrrrl RO. Rar 13292 Si. Paid, AN 55113 6121487-3619 Mr. Donald F. Pauley Clerk - Administrator City of Mounds View 2401 Highway 10 Mounds View, MN 55112 Re: Development proposal for located within the City by County Road II-2, U.S. 35W Dear Don: July 9, 1986 approximately 50 acres of property of Mounds View, bounded generally Highway 10, and Interstate highway Please accept my apology for the tardiness of my response to our meeting of June 9, 1986. The delay is attributable to a �^ variety of factors but should not be construed as a lack of /�- interest on our part. JLN Development remains very enthusiastic about the project, and we are now prepared to proceed as quickly as applicable procedures will permit. At our recent meeting we discussed two general areas related to the project. The matters discussed, anP our response, is summarized below. 1. Site Plan In connection with the preliminary site plan which we presented, you advised that the City was generally satisfied but would oppose any access to the site from County Road H-2. Since our meeting we have re- evaluated the site plan to determine project feasibility without -access to County Road H-2. While we understand the City's concern and while we are prepared to take every reasonable step to mitigate the impact of the development on the surrounding neighbors, we fee:. that effective development of the site can occur only with access to the project from County Road H-2. As you know, we are con- sidering a significant development which will involve over 600,000 square feet of improved space, and more than 50 acres of. land. The prohibition of access to County Road H-2 would, in our judgment, prevent effective development of J the site and cf,uld impair project feasibility. REA1 RSTATF DEVELOPAMN7'
