r - _ .- <br />CORDON HEDLUND <br />1255 Pike lake Drive <br />New Brighton, Minn. 55112 <br />Phone: 633-6260 <br />March 8, 1978 <br />Administrative Offices <br />City of New Brighton, Minn. 55112 <br />Re: PL-114 Preliminary Plat <br />Attn; Mr James F. Winkels <br />The revised plan is substantially the same as the plan shown <br />at the February 21, 1978 Planning Commission meeting except <br />that the road has been shortened to give the lots at the north <br />end of the Cut-de-sac more depth.. <br />The Planning Commission seemed to favor making the plat 7 lots <br />rather than 8. I have not done as they recommended for the <br />following reasons; The average size of the lots is now <br />8,563 square feet. (Metro Council suggests 7,500 square feet. <br />If there ware 7 lots the average would be 9,786 square feet. <br />I don't feet that the small change in lot area warrants the <br />additional cost. (8 lots paying for the cost of improvements <br />versus 7 1ots.~ <br />This plat does not meet the present city codes but I feel it <br />is appropriate since there has been so much talk about smaller <br />lots by the HRA, Metro Council, Comphrehensive Plan, The Plan- <br />ning Commissio nd the City Council. All of those groups <br />feel that lot st is the most important step toward "Moderate <br />Cost Housing", <br />Sincerely, <br />,, <br />~~~ t `~~~ <br />~~~' <br />Gordon Hedlund. <br />
