ROBERT BEUTEL <br />ATTORNEY AT LAW ~ `~A ~ ~~~~ <br />RICE CREEK CENTER "'~- 6++~ <br />2124 SILVER LAKE ROAD <br />NEW BRIGHTON, MINNESOTA 551 12 <br />(6 t 2) 633-5685 <br />August 30, 1978 <br />..New Brighton City Council <br />'.New Brighton City Hall <br />New Brighton, MN..5.5112 . <br />re: Application of ReC<E. Corporation for Variance <br />Ladies and.Gentlemens <br />I am writing to support the request of R.C.E. Corporation for a <br />variance from the requirement-for a.eurb along the south line of <br />the Rice:Creek Center parking lot. Speaking as.a tenant in Rice <br />Creek Center, I have no .desire for such a curb now. As you know, <br />the property to the south is unimproved; a curb will add nothing to. <br />the aesthetics, and there exists no function for a curb there now; <br />no traffic or water to channel one way or the other. <br />Speaking as a watcher of the economy, I.thnk it is very harmful <br />to require-the installation of an improvement for which there.is <br />no current use and which will be torn up when the area to .the south <br />is-developed. That's what inflation is all about: paying more <br />money to get less value. We all know.it will be the patrons of <br />Rice.Creek Center who ultimately pay .the-bill for the installation <br />and .demolition of that curb. <br />Please: understand that I have.no.quarrel-with .the general require- <br />ment for curbs. It just seems to:be.a common .sense place.to exercise <br />..sound discretion to postpone .the requirement for a curb .here until <br />the area to the south is.develoged and the final configuration for <br />all parking is known: <br />Since , <br />Robert.Beutel <br />Attorney at Law <br />RB:jb . <br />
