Dear Dave:
First let me congratulate you on your election day victory and offer best
wishes for another successful and rewarding term as Mayor.
You are to be commended on the many great things that have been
accomplished during your tenure of office and best wishes for continued
success.
I waited until after election to mention the following matter which you
may be aware of. Along, the river bark, north of the Coolidge Bridge, is a
property owned by a Mr. Cichy. The University of Massachusetts and
Amherst Rowing Clubs have access through the Cichy property to the river.
The other day, in touring the area with Tom Carhart, I was distressed to
note the poor condition of the road leading down to the river as well as
the numerous junked cars on the Cichy property, adjacent to the right of
way. I would think there are many reasons to force Cichy to remove the
blighted vehicles. Once this was accomplished, and perhaps in the spring,
a grader could make one pass to the river which would straighten out the
road and certainly be beneficial to the UMass crews.
I would be glad to discuss this with you or other city officials if
necessary.
Again, best wishes and I look forward to congratulating you in person.
k ely,
. Covell

the roadway leading from the Damon Road parking area to the River
