August 22,2019 <br />RACHEL JUBA <br />COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR <br />CITY OF HUGO – MINNESOTA <br />14669 Fitzgerald Ave. N., Hugo, MN 55038 <br />651.762.6304 <br />RE: Heartland Credit Union – Proposed New Branch <br />Victor Gardens Marketplace Shopping Center <br />Dear Ms. Juba: <br />On behalf of Heartland Credit Union, La Macchia Group, LLC is submitting for review a <br />Preliminary Development Plan for the above project. <br />Heartland Credit Union has entered into a sale agreement to acquire approximately .908 <br />acres in Victor Gardens Marketplace Shopping Center. Heartland Credit Union looks forward <br />to serving the residents of Hugo, as they have for surrounding communities for 80 years. <br />We propose a new 2,490 square foot retail bank branch building. In addition to the proposed <br />branch, the site will also consist of 24 off-street parking spaces. 16 spaces to be shared with <br />the Blue Heron Restaurant. <br />The exterior of the branch will consist of brick veneer, manufactured limestone and Exterior <br />Insulated Finish System to match the color scheme of their existing main office, the branded <br />identity of Heartland Credit Union. In order to meet the standards of the development, the <br />new branch has been designed in a French Provincial style. A mansard roof with <br />dimensional shingles will hide the HVAC equipment hidden on the flat roof behind. <br />Aluminum framed windows and high-performance glazing finish off this very efficient <br />structure. <br />The Branch lobby is designed to encourage customers to relax as they tend to their financial <br />needs. This branch includes a self-serve café where customers can get a fresh cup of <br />coffee, an internet station where they can take care of their online banking needs and a <br />lounge to relax and have an informal conversation with consultants & friends. Heartland <br />Credit Union is excited to serve the thriving community of Hugo. <br /> <br />
