Letters of support BPFPage 1 From: "fosterprk via Scandia Neighbor Inquiries"<scandia@betterplaceforests.com> To: scandia(2betterplaceforests.com Date: 5/24/2020 6:11:07 PM Subject: New Neighbor Robert K. Foster 19877 Maxwill Ave. N. Marine on St. Croix, MN 55047 612-750-5650 (cell) fosterprk@aol. com Mr. Liam McNally Better Place Forests 3717 Buchanan St. San Francisco, CA 94123 801-712-2607 Dear Mr. McNally, I must say that when I received your recent letter regarding BETTERPLACE- SCANDIA, my curiosity was running at full throttle. All sorts of thoughts scrolled through my mind. I avoided reading it for a bit, and then finally sat down and read it carefully. I could not be more thrilled that the incredible wood that is immediately behind my backyard is going to remain the beautiful place that it is. I think your concept is absolutely brilliant. My 15 acres of mixed hardwoods, tamarack bogs and a small meadow that my son and I made out of the SE corner (the local critters do love a nice meadow), abuts your proposed property on its west side, about midway north -to -south. 1 have worked hard over the years to be a good steward to all the plants and creatures on my little piece of what I think of as paradise. I have been holding my breath waiting for bulldozers to start punching roads into the parcel, followed by the non- stop noise of mega -mansions going up. Please count me as an ally neighbor. If that opinion is of any value at your Conditional Use Permit hearing, 6/2/20, feel free to share this letter. On a personal note, I am at a point in my life where I'm mostly over the career I had in the truck body world (35+ years). Social Security just doesn't quite reach to allow the things that my partner and I like to do ..... so I need to be doing something to generate a bit of income. If there is a Scandia staff position that I might be a candidate for, kindly consider my hat thrown into the ring. Sincerely, Robert K. Foster 5/28/2020 BETTER PLACE FORESTS May 29th, 2020 To whom it may concern: support the proposed Better Place Forest located in Scandia, MN.
