1 y <br /> . February 17, 1999 <br /> Members of City Council <br /> City of St. Anthony <br /> 3301 Silver Lake Road <br /> St. Anthony,Minnesota 55418 <br /> RE: City of St. Anthony Flood Mitigation and Improvement Alternatives <br /> _My nam -is John-D_Kieffer.and I have lived in my home at 2824 Hwy 88 in St.Anthony for <br /> 12 years. <br /> I attended the city council meeting the evening of February 9, 1999 and listened along with my neighbors <br /> in stunned disbelief of your alternative proposal for the 100-year flood protection.Let me make it first and <br /> foremost clear to you,that neither my home nor the property in which it sets is for sale. <br /> All of us who reside and make out homes adjacent and near Silver Point Park stand united in our total <br /> opposition to this alternative proposal which you allocated two thousand dollars to study.The costs to those <br /> who would be directly impacted is immeasurable and I am saddened by the mere fact that this plan even <br /> came up as a consideration. <br /> For the homeowners in this area,Silver Point Park has always been an extension of our back-yards. We <br /> . feel we have already sacrificed the park in exchange for a temporary holding pond. We have already given <br /> our contribution to this project for the benefit of the residents of the village. We should not be asked to give <br /> up more. <br /> There are other options and courses of action available which do not include the drastic measures which <br /> you are considering.I employ you to focus and examine them. It is time to change your vision. It is not in <br /> the right direction. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> �Jo� .Kieffer <br /> 2824 Hwy 88 <br /> St. Anthony,Minnesota 55418 <br />
