RIDGEDALE ~A~ BANK BUI~ING 17~ ~ PLYMOUTH ROAD MINNE~N~, MINNE~TA 6534~ ~ ( 612 ) 546-2455 April 28, 1981 The Honorable Thomas Gamec Mayor of the City of Ramsey 15153 Nowthen Boulevard Anoka, MN 55303 Re: Discount 10 Liquors, Inc. 6131 Highway 10 Hazard Condition at Guy's Trucking, 6127 Highway 10. Dear Mayor Gamec: Please be advised that the undersigned has been contacted by James Gilbertson, President of Discount 10 Liquors, Inc., regarding a hazardous condition existing on the property of Guy's Trucking. Please.be advised that the problem concerns the parking of several 40 foot van-type trailers along the frontage portion of Guy's Trucking Company and my client's lot line. It is my understanding that this matter has been previously brought to your attention; however, you have taken no action to date. On several occasions my client has been advised by business patrons that said patrons have almost been involved in automobile accidents due to the fact that the semi-trailers in question block the view of my client's premises from Highway 10.~ The purpose of this corres- pondence is to inform you and the State Highway Department of the serious nature of the problem in an effort to disclaim all liability for grievous bodily injuries which could result from your allowing this dangerous condition to exist. _ It is interesting to note that when my client initially applied for a liquor license the application was delayed due to the fact that certain members of the council felt access from Highway 10 near the curve was somewhat hazardous. It is indeed ironic that you are not at all concerned about the current problem.
