Dear Mr. Mrs. Wright:
This is to confirm Mr. Keith Walker's meeting with you, on site, on Thursday, February 23,
2006, wherein he discussed with you the possibility of flattening the slope to the south of the
intersection on the east side of the roadway to provide adequate sight distance for the safety of
the traveling public at the above referenced intersection.
You gave verbal permission to access your property to flatten the slope to provide sight distance
to the south with the following understanding:
1. It is understood that the slope will be flattened from the intersection of Rt. 636 east to the
private entrance to your property on the south side of your home. Also, approximately
15 -20 foot around the intersection of Rt. 636 and Rt. 641.
2. It is understood that all disturbed areas during construction will be dressed and reseeded.
3. You gave permission for a temporary construction easement with the understanding that
this easement will terminate after construction is completed.
4. You gave permission to stock pile the removed material on your property at the private
entrance onto Rt. 641 approximately 50 -70 foot from the roadway.
We plan to complete this work when adequate funds are available in our budget to make this
safety improvement.
If you are in agreement to the above, please sign and date where indicated and return in the self
addressed stamp envelope provided for your convenience.
I am enclosing a copy of this letter marked "Your Copy" for your records.
