Elk River, MN 55330
Dear Mr. Dixon:
Guardian Angels has acquired a 14 acre parcel of land for the construction for an
elderly housing campus that would offer continuum of age restricted housing options
and services. The site, located near the intersection of Wright County Road 18 and
Kassel Avenue, has been identified by the City as one of the sites appropriate for this
type of land use and housing.
The provision of a variety of housing to meet the life cycle needs of all Albertville
residents has been a goal of the City since the adoption of its Comprehensive Plan in
1996. The City Council has witnessed that as the community continues to grow, the
demand for elderly housing with services has increased. They have identified elderly
housing as a community priority to allow long time residents to continue to live in
Albertville as they reach an age where they can no longer manage their life long homes.
In this respect, the City supports Guardian Angels' efforts to bring a 47 unit HUD senior
apartment to Albertville.
Sincerely,
RCEST ASSOCIATED CONSULTANTS, INC.
