Dear John,
Thank you for your letter of January 27, 1988.
First, with regard to the property owned by US Express to
the rear of yours: we are all in agreement that it is very
unfortunate that the paving and draining has not yet been
accomplished. However, it was determined over a year ago that
there was no utility in Mr. Herlihy contracting for such work
until various problems with the existing drainage culverts and
the brook itself had been rectified. Specifically, it became
evident that the brook needs to be dredged and culverts cleared
in order that the current water flows, and increased flows
directed thereto in the future, be accommodated.
A series of meetings have been held on this subject and it
appears we are near an agreement which will result in
accomplishing the necessary work this Spring. I will keep you
posted.
Secondly, with regard to the wood stored on your property:
the Northampton Redevelopment Authority has instructed me to
point out to you that, regardless of other problems, the storage
of wood in the manner it has been stored is in violation of the
Industrial Park regulations and that you lacked the authority to
bring it in in the first place. Additionally, it would appear
that, since the ground has been frozen during the winter, you
should be able to move the wood. It is the NRA' s responsibility
to advise you that the wood should be removed or stored in an
appropriate manner.
