McCARTHY MICHAEL R. HAAS MARK E. ROBINSON MATTHEW T. ROETHE March 22, 2004 Wisconsin Lawyers: Expert Advisers. Serving You. NORB SCRIBNER c/o PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT ROOM 116 CITY -COUNTY BLDG MADISON WI 53709 JOHN T. ROETHE (1911-1975) Of Counsel: KENNETH H. BUHROW ANDERS BIRKELAND RE: ROBERT AND JANE COOK PROPERTY LOCATED IN THE SOUTHWEST 1/4 OF THE NORTHWEST 1/4 OF SECTION 32, TOWN OF ALBION, DANE COUNTY, WISCONSIN Dear Mr. Scribner: I represent Robert and Jane Cook who own property as described above. I enclose a sketched map of the property that they own and I also enclose a copy of the plat map showing the area that they own. The parcel owned by Mr. and Mrs. Cook is landlocked except for some driveway easements. They own approximately ten acres. They would like to parcel off a two acre parcel for each of their two children. Mrs. Cook spoke with Kristine Schutte who informed her that at the very least there would need to be 66 foot of roadway frontage for this to happen. Obviously they don't have that. However Ms. Schutte also informed them that if the parcel of property that they owned was created prior to 1970, this 66 foot frontage requirement could possibly be grandfathered in. The property that my clients own was created prior to 1970. I enclose herewith for your inspection the following: 1. A Deed in 1964 from Winifred Stebbins to Beulah Ladd which includes the conveyance of the entire 40 acre quarter quarter section except for four exceptions. I enclose the Deeds related to the four exceptions. 2. I also enclose the map on which I have platted all of these legal descriptions. The bottom line is the property deeded to Beulah Ladd in 1964, which consisted of the entire quarter quarter section (40 acres), once the exceptions are removed, results in the remaining parcel being the exact parcel of land that the Cooks now own. This parcel was purchased by the Cooks from Mr. and Mrs. Olstad in 1994. Reply to 0 24 N. Henry Street, PO Box 151, Edgerton, WI 53534, PH: 608-884-3391 FAX: 608-884-7018 315 E.
