OIL, &AM BLUE LINE CONSTRUCTION COMPANY 2827 NO. HELEN ST. • NO. ST. PAUL. MINNESOTA 55109 • (612) 777.7699 June 28 1987 Mr. Albert Plaisted 5210 Oconnell dr. St. Paul, Mn. 55112 Dear Mr. Plaisted This letter is in response to questions raised by the city of St. Xnthony re- -garding your Dairy Queen store at 2612 Hwy. 88, in the St. Anthony Shopping Center. As i understand, the questions are; 1. Does the permit for remodling, that was applied for and paid for reflect the actual construction. A. The answer is yes. The foundation and floor of the original store remained intact. The construction of the building was as per nlan. That plan was submitted to the city for approval. From that procedure a dollar amount for the building permit was established. That receipt is attached to this letter. 2. Did we, (Mr. Plaisted and myself) represent to the Planning Commsssion and the City Council the extent of remodling as it relates to the finished building. • A. The answer is yes, to yhe best of my recollection. 3. Did we misrepresent the extent of the remodling and thereby void the grandfathering of the roof top' rotating dairy queen sign. A. No. As previossly stated, the cor..pleted building is just as it was conveyed to the planning com�_ssion. As to the statement of a lowered roof line. ghat is correct, the height of the top of the mansard and the top of the dairy queen sign is lower than the original building. To the best of my recollection, a brochure from Dairy Queen International eras presented to the Planning Commission snowing the new mansard style, which this building has and which Commission agreed fit the desired theme of the St. Anthony Shopping Center. 4. The question of the Dairy Queen logo signs on the north and south side of the roof mansard A. Atthe meetings with the Planning Commission and City Council we �.�ere told that each business -,.as allowed one mansard sign, but due to the location of i the dairy queen building in relation to the remainder of the shopping center and to the street intersections north and south of the building. That the 1 store may be allowed to have two mansard signs. At some point after starting . " construction, we were notified by someone from the city that this building could have the two signs. I hope this information helps clear tin any misunderstanding. Sincerql y Charles E. Anderson �': ... (owner)
