As a resident of this city (rSendota Heights) and owner of Iots 6, ?�nd 8 of Block No. 4 which are included in the area to be assessed, 3 str uously object to the pxoposed a�sessments against my pxopexty fox the following r asons: � abject ta the exclusion fram ihe property ta be assessed obtained as the result of the improvements, the tennis courts, the s and other playgroun� facil�ties a-� the end o� 3utl.er Avenue just ktes adjacent to Ivy Hill Dxive; also to the exclusion of empty lots sout eo?-ner of Butler A venue and Ivy Hi�l Drive upon wh�ch it is propased additional Town Hauses; also io �he exclusion of the t�alance o� the this locat?on; also ta the exclusion of Town House prapert�.es along riaple Park Drive and the east side af Sylvandale Road between r;ap3e Butler Avenue as ariginally platted.

Secandly, I abject to it�e assessmeni againsi my progerty fo curbing of Butler Avenue. These projec-ts mainly improve access to Ma the tennis cousts and the playgrounds just west af Butler Averius and In iaci� if there is any impxovement to my proper�y as the result oi c urbi•ng, it is more than of�`set by a decrease in value as a resuli of increased -iEraific on Butler Avenue to and from the Maplewood Parx�c and and even though this particular section of Butler Avenue is very shox a speedway ta and �rom said playgrounds, thus endangering the 1?ves a and especially the children, a number of whom reside on thi� street. praspective home buyer with small chi?dren would greatly hesitate buy this street if he zs co�,nizant oz this traz"iic, preierence d solely on gaving and lewaod Park, vy Hill Drive. his paving and the greatly ihe play'�-rounds , , it has become t2�e people, Certainly, a ng property on Since ihe paving makes access to�the said paxk and. playgrou ds easier, and also makes ingress and egress to and from the town house praperties a ong Ivy �i.i3�..,� Z}rive easier, a part oi these exgenses shauid be absorbed �y the citiy as general ex- penses assessable against the.,sa7d playgounds and park propexty; and he properties �. a3ang...a� both s�des oi Ivy K�.1�.s� Driv� shaul.d have been included i ihe districi to be assessed, for, as I have stated in"the foregoing� ingress and e es� to and from said town house properzies has been made easier.

If the planner has t cont�nd with a road �ntering at a predetermi.ned point, he will be ob igated to put �he road where it disrupts what would be proper pZanning. This road would be vezy expensive ior us. It �rould run about 1,(?0 to 500 feet in a southerly direction and about 700 fest more in westerlp direction before exiting on Victoria. The traffic fram 37 residences of the Bopp dcvelogment would be very objectionahle t.o residents of our property. It would amount to 7l� automobiles� figu two vehicles per family� using the roa.d. In essence, we would be giv-i_ng an easement through our land to Victoria Ave. for 37 residences or �wo—thirds of the total in �hat whole developmmt.

The State will reimburse municip lita.es with a gopulatian over IQQO for casts incurred b the munici aZi� in carrying out sanitation activities. The State will not reim urse municipalities with a gopulaCion aver 1Q00 for costs incurre solely by its private property awners who remove and dispase of the r da.seased elm or oak trees on private property. This means that a cit wi.th a papulation over 1000 cannat collect sanita�ion receipts fram its home- owners and then present these to the state for reimbursement because the city has nat incurred any direct cost for �he sanitation nrocednre. I� is my opinion that the Legislature intended ta pramote co among the State, local goverrunental una.ts and priva�.e hameow shade tree disease control activities. It shoul.d be made cl the law does all.ow governmentai un.its with populatians over financially assist homeowners in removing diseased elm or oa fram priva�e.proper�y. 2he State will share in private prap tree removal subsidies as long as the property in questian q The new Iaw does not, however, pravide for direct s�ate gran individual property owners. rs in r that 00 to trees ifies. to Nate, that cities under 1000 can receive funds based upon pra erty awner'tree removal receipts, This exception is the result oi the "in.-kind contribution."
