Hopkins Zon:i.ng �c Plannin� Co�.
Attention: Iiarlan Perbix
Gentlemen:
We own a traet of land on 7th Ave. Sout11� Iiopkins, Knot,rn as (that part of the
NW ].�4 of tne SE 1�l� of Section 25 Township 117 Range 22 formerly described as
Lots 25 thru 36 and the North 10� of Lot 37 Bloclt 6 West ��pls. Annex now
vacated including adjoinin� 1/2 of vacated alley) for which we taould li.ke to
have the zon:i.ng changed from its nresent residentia7. character to the appropriate
zoning allowing us to bui.ld -three triplex apartment units.
� Our rea.sons a.re as follows:
The lots ar.e f1�.7.1y improved as to water� sewer, curb, gutter and black top
on which the special assessment paynents axe very ext�ensive. We feel that
due to the general cnaracter of houses across the street and near 17y (this
is an older type of neighborhood in which some of the homes are not too
desirable or maintained to well, ) th�,t it does not warrant buildin� new
homes on the s�aecul�-.tive market. Therefore we believe that a good solution.
to the situation would be to build these low rent type triplex buildings.
It wnuld first of all definitely up grade the area., it t�rould also return
this land to a tax producir� ba.sis.
We feel that builcling costs at present make it unprofitable to build double
bungalo�rs.
We would lil:e to get �. reply on tlzis as soon as pos�ible as we would like to
start construction on this before the ground freezes� hoping that you ��ill
razone to fit our needs, we axe:
Sincerely yours,
� S�K:mck Steiner & Koppelman Inc.

Dear Harlan,
Attached is a letter I sent last year to the Zoning and Plannin�
Commission. T'r�e sub�ect of this letter was re-cliscussed at our Recreation
and Parks Commission last Monday and it was suggested that I a�ain write
your �roup to see if it received favorable comment and if any action is
'� contemplatad in the near future.
Since the results of the Segoe Survey show that there will undoubt-
edly be lar�e housing developments in Hopkins as it expands to the west
and north, it will be a growing problem to obtain park and playground
areas.
In f act, we are f aced with this very problem in Peaceful Valley where
Steiner and Koppelman are adding more and more units to their development.
We now have a small playground b� the present lift station but it will be
wholly inadequate in a few years�.
An ordinance as is suggested in the attached letter would do much
to alleviate the inevitable problem of obtaining play�round areas in future
real estate developments .
It would also solve the present problem in Park Valley where the men
developin� the pro�ect fel� far short of their guarantee to duplicate or
better the playground area that we had before the housing project begari.
Sincerely,
-� � .
