RE: Submittal of Clubhouse plans and site development plans for parkin!! lot area
matchine: the PUD master plan
Dear Mr. Lund:
This letter serves to confirm our prior conversations with the City for the development of Cedar
Creek Golf Course. The name to be incorporated later this year for the golf course lands will be
Cedar Creek Golf, LLC. Per discussions with Mike Couri and Gary Hale previously, the
submission for building permit is a necessary step to secure a liquor license in the town. The
issuance of this license for a clubhouse with full bar and restaurant capabilities is of critical
interest to the long term year round operations of this project. This is consistent with all of
our narratives for the master plan approvals. We hereby request issuance of the license to
Pilot LandI Cedar Creek LLC naminl! Kent Roessler as orincioal.
By May 1, we expect to be ready for the footings to be created. We would proceed throughout
the year to create the clubhouse to use the mechanical room setup and office areas to monitor the
grow in period which will begin as early as July for some of the golf holes. As part of the needs
of the golf course, a 500 GPM well is proposed as a back up water source to the ponds we are
creating at or near the water table. As such, we are requesting confirmation that we will not need
to drag the water lines to the clubhouse. Most golf course clubhouses in fact do not have
municipal water. Several have significant restaurant and entertaining facilities as well. The
plans submitted have shown water lines but we now intend to have them deleted now that our
irrigation well needs have been determined.
We have set a I!rand ooeninl! for the I!olf course to be Julv 4. 1999. However. the restaurant.
I!olf shoo and related offzees may be able to ooen as early as Februarv 15. 1999. In order to
know that we can be orderinl! the aoorooriate suoolies. sell tournaments. book weddinl!s. and
olan to run the business. we need confirmation of the liquor license.
Unless there is a code reason that can not be modified, we will proceed at this time to plan for the
facility to use well water only, and not provide a line for domestic use. Our fire sprinkler needs
will be able to be met by the well system. We can work with Kevin on appropriate power and
pressure backup systems.

We desire a formal clubhouse groundbreaking ceremony on either March 20, or some day during
the week of March 23 to 27th. We would like as many of the staff and Council members to
attend as possible, along with the Planning Commission members who have assisted in the
creation of this development. Please confirm through Linda Houghton the best day for this
ceremony.
The 4769 SF clubhouse facility and building uses are as follows:
. Restaurant seating for 113 occupants in 1406 SF
. Kitchen Bar area for 4 to 8 staff 562 SF
. Lobby, Bathrooms, and Mechanical area 1296 SF
. Golf Shop with 3 staff in Building 1039 SF
. Office Area for above golf shop staff 466 SF
Parking for clubhouse, bar, restaurant and meeting rooms provided at the clubhouse site are on a
combination of 167 paved stalls and 93 stalls on grass areas for special occasion overflow
parking. See attached plans.
We have included an 11 x 17 size set of golf hole plans and a large size set for information
purposes. This meets our PUD condition of approval to submit formal golf course plans. A full
golf course will generate a demand of about 110 to 150 stalls. At the time of operations start up,
the management will be able to determine how often and under what circumstances the overflow
parking is used. If this becomes as successful an operation as hoped, the overflow parking areas
will be paved by the year 2002. From a cost effective approach to operations success, it is
important to note that Wright County is preparing to "improve" and definitely disrupt Highway
118 during 2001, and only after their completion, will this facility achieve its peak operational
potential.
As you recall, maintenance buildings are within the City of St. Michael, at the western end of the
project. parking and building review will occur through their municipal staff.
Please contact us with any questions you may have at any time. Thank you in advance for your
comments and consideration.
