LAUREL- YELLOWSTONE CITY-COUNTY PLANNING BOARD LAUREL, MONTANA 69044 November 23, 1982 David W. Hoefer Deputy County Attorney Yellowstone County Courthouse, Rm. 508 Billings, MT 59101 Dear Mr. Hoefer: This letter is to inform you of the action the Laurel- Yellowstone City - County Planning Board has taken in reference to Mr. Roger Anderson and his trailer park. Mr. Anderson met with the Board at its regular meeting on November 11, 1982. A lengthy discussion occurred between me, the Board, and Mr. Anderson. Mr. Anderson indicated that he thought his trailer court preceeded both the formation of the Board and the regulations cited by the Board. I had checked with the Yellowstone Valley Electric Co -op and their records indicated that the first meter was set up in June 1976, the second in May 1977 and the third in October 1979; all of these dates are clearly after both the formation of the Board and the adoption of the applicable regulations. The Planning Board then took formal action which gave Mr. Anderson until June 1, 1983 to either comply with the Subdivision Regulations or have moved two of the trailers off of the site. Mr. Anderson was informed that you would be notified of this action; in addition, the Board told Mr. Anderson that you would be asked to take legal action against him if compliance on this part did not occur by June 1, 1983. If you have any questions, please contact me. (P.O. Box 20762, Billings, MT 59104 or 245 - 6144). Sincerely UL L. ohn Mac Martin Planning Advisor ,a 4 526 Grand Avenue, P.O.

Box 10 Laurel, MT 59044 • Dear Mayor and City Council: This letter is to inform you about a personnel change within Cumin Associates and the effects that change will have on Laurel's contract. I have accepted a position, effective January 1, 1983, with Congress- man Ron Marlenee in Washington, D.C.. Our office policy dictates that the other staff members are familiar with office projects. Thus, both Cal Cumin and Margaret Gough are familiar with the planning issues in Laurel. Cal and I will attend the Thursday night Planning Board meeting to brief the Board about the change. The three of us all have prior business commitments on November 16, 1982, your next meeting, although all three of us plan on attending the December 7th Council meeting. I would like to introduce Cal and Margie to the Council at that time and answer any questions you may have. This will also confirm that the level of service to Laurel from Cumin Associates will not change. If you have any questions prior to the December 7 meeting, please feel free to call.
