Dear Mr. Harrington,

I want to thank you for taking the time to meet with me the other day at 37th and Gage. I appreciate your assistance and guidance.

Following your recommendation, I met with Jenny Taylor and Mike Hall. They have since referred the matter back to you.

Next Monday, my survey crew will stake out the property line. Once that is complete, we can continue moving forward to at least get the right-of-way back to the property line and into its final state, so we are not constantly fighting the elements.

We will also need to coordinate with Evergy to identify any issues they may have. As I recall, there was a significant hill and a large slope in that area prior to any work beginning. This will require a thorough review as quickly as possible.

In the meantime, I would like to spend some time working through the details of exactly where the right-of-way is located and what work will actually be performed within it. If I am to be responsible for the area from the back of the curb to my property line, I would like to have some input on what is done in that space. Additionally, I would prefer a solution that requires zero maintenance both now and in the future, in order to keep long-term costs as low as possible.

Thank you again for your help. I look forward to continuing to work with you on this.

Sincerely,
