This property is located on the south side of Fish Point Road, west of Deerfield Drive, at 17252, 17254, 17256 and 17258 Deerfield Drive. The final plat will add 5' of property to the existing townhouse lots, described as Lots 5-8, Block 1, Deerfield 2nd, which will allow the construction of a deck on the townhouse units. The Subdivision Ordinance requires that the final plat be recorded within 90 days of approval, or in this case by July 1, 2002. Failure to do so renders the approved final plat void, unless a written request for an extension has been submitted and approved by the City Council. On June 17, 2002, the Planning staff received a letter from Paul L. Hellickson, representing the developer, D.R. Horton, requesting an extension of this deadline. In his letter, Mr. Hellickson indicates the reason for the extensiolJ. is to assemble the proper consents to sign the final plat documents. Current Circumstances: Mr. Hellickson has indicated he is in the process of obtaining the necessary documents for the final plat. The townhomes on these lots are in place, and no additional work is required for the final plat. The Issues: The purpose of the deadline is to keep the plat process moving forward. Limiting the time also ensures that a subdivision must keep pace with the newest design requirements for public improvements. The final plat is relatively simple and does not require the installation of any new public improvements. 1:\02fi1es\02subdivisions\02final plats\deerfield 6\extend.doc Page I 16200 Eagle Creek Ave. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph.

Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 RE: "DEERFIELD 6TH ADDITION" - TIME EXTENSION REQUEST Dear Ms. Kansier: On behalf of my client, D.R. Horton, Inc. - Minnesota Division, an extension of time is being formally requested for the final plat (Resolution #02-46, approved July 1, 2002) referenced above. As we discussed today, I am meeting with the City Attorneys on Tuesday, June 18 to get the proper amendment and consent forms created. The delay in not getting this accomplished earlier was due to confusion as to the correct number of consents necessary and from the proper parties. It may be possible to have all the consents signed by July I, but depending on the number, and locations of the mortgage holders for the coachhome units, it is necessary to request an extension of time of the final plat. Thank you for your assistance in the matter. Please feel free to call with any further questions. Very truly yours, ~:j~ Paul L. Hellickson cc: Mike Suel, D.R.
