Hewitt 70 Apple Road Tolland,CT 06084-3744 Mr_Ben Wood Board of Health City of Northampton, MA In reply to your letter dated June 10,2010 concerning property I own at 25 Mann Terrace, Florence,MA. My contractor for maintenance of the construction site is Mr.Jacob Schrader,of Leeds,Ma,who can be reached at 413-584-1110. He was recommended to me by Green Mountain Power Equipment in Florence. Mr. Schrader has been clearing any overgrowth several times a year since 2008. My Instructions to him were to check the property every month or so and to do what needs to be done. By coincidence, I had talked to Mr. Schrader on Thursday afternoon. He told me that he had gone by the house a few weeks before and that it had gotten pretty overgrown and would have to be taken care of I asked him to take care of the problem as soon as possible,and he replied that it would be done within a week or so. My working agreement with Mr. Schrader as outlined above is the extent of any maintenance plan. As a fill in for information regarding this site I give you the following information: I) There is no certificate of occupancy since the home was severely damaged by broken water pipes several years ago. 2.) There is no plumbing in the house except for water to supply the heating system. 3.) Gas service is shut off 4.) Electric service is on, but no telephone or cable television. 5.) The house is unfurnished. My wife and I inherited this house from her father when he passed away. Our hope is to eventually move to Florence where my wife grew up. Unfortunately, my health and the current financial climate prevent us from continuing the work as quickly as we would like to. In the past,when Mr.Schrader has performed the clearing of the lot the neighbors were pleased and grateful. I hope that will be the case this time. They are welcome to cut any branches or plants that intrude onto their properties at any time. I hope that the above information is sufficient. I will call the number on your letter to follow up any other questions you might have. Sincerely, Peter W. Hewitt NORTHAMPTON BONRO OF HEPON.
