Dear Mr. Johnson.
M?1ItCYA,REor M• MURPH. Y
After revi&e King this planning file and discussing the matter moth De nny Hecker and his
staff, 1 believe some things have become apparent that should be brought to the attention of the
City of Oak Park heights
Plmiing records show that the Application for a Conditional Use Permit for Denny
Hecker's Conversion 'fan Center was stanped. "Received" by the City of Oak Palk .Heights on
Augiist 22 2003, S ince no notice of any deficiency in the Application mras sent to Hecker within
ten days, this Application, in a. legally complete form vas,. therefore, rec�erved by the City on
August 22 � 2003. for the p�P uses of Minn. Stat. § 15.99. All of you with the C ity staff' are aware
�
that this Statute is strictly followed. The requirement of the Statute is that you either gr=t the
permit request or deny the request with the appropriate findings within sixty days of August.
22nd or, as a .utter of law, the permit request is deemed approved,
When Scout Richards wrote to Denny Hecker on October 29, 2003, notifying Hecker of
an extension of the sixty day deadline, it was nine days late since the Permit Application was
approved by law on Ociober 20, 2003.

We gust that Oak Park Heights will honor this Statute. If this seems an unreasonable
position, keep in rniD,d that the Hecker interests believe they have been singled out among die
auto dealerships in the City of Oak Park Heights for discriminatory treatment; that they have
