1996-06-26 Kolles Draft Ltr . . William S. Radzwill Andrew J. MacArlhur Michael C. Couri RADZWIU & COURI Attorneys at Law 705 Central Avenue East PO Box 369 St. Michael, MN 55376 (612) 497-1930 (612) 497-2599 (FAX) June 26, 1996 Mr. Dan Frie Wright Sherbourne Realty Box 646 Monticello, MN 55362 Re: city of Albertville; Little Mountain Development. Dear Dan: As we discussed last week, please find enclosed a draft of an agreement that the city would like Sylvester Kolles to sign relating to how the remainder of his property will develop in the future. This agreement has not been approved by the City council as of yet, but is on the city's July 1, 1996 agenda for consideration. As has been discussed previously, the 10 acre parcel your group purchased was not properly subdivided under the city's subdivision ordinance. Had Mr. Kolles followed the proper procedures in subdividing this property, he would have had to plat this property. In doing so, he would have had to address the infrastructure issues raised by City Staff when your plat application came through. I would suggest the following procedure in regard to moving forward with your plat: 1. Have Mr. Kolles prepare a concept plan detailing how his property will be developed in the future. It should be noted that the city is not seeking to have Mr. Kolles develop his property now, but rather is seeking to have Mr. Kolles determine how his property will develop at such time as Mr. Kolles chooses to develop it. 2. Forward the concept plan to the city for review by city Staff. The city Planner and Engineer will review the concept plan and will recommend any changes they believe necessary. Once approved by the city Planner and Engineer, Mr. Kolles, the principals behind Little Mountain Development and the city should execute the enclosed agreement. . . . Mr. Dan Frie June 26, 1996 Page Two 3. At such time as you are ready to submit another preliminary plat application, have your engineer integrate the infrastructure needs of Mr. Kolles' property (as detailed on the concept plan) into your utility plans, grading plans, etc. such that adequate pipe sizes and other such items are shown on your preliminary plat submissions. This should allow for proper sizing of pipes, ponds, etc. without the need to resize these items when Mr. Kolles' property develops. 4. If it is determined that oversizing of pipes or ponds or other such items will be required on your plat based upon the anticipated development of the Kolles property, the city will look to either your group or Mr. Kolles to pay for/install such items. I would assume that these issues could be agreed upon between your group and Mr. Kolles. Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions regarding this matter. Thank you. sincerely, ~C~ Michael C. Couri RADZWILL & COURI cc: Mr. Gary Hale Mr. Pete Carlson Ms. Liz stockman -
