Dear Mr. Knowles:
I reviewed your letter today of June 30th, referencing the conditions set
forth by the Sanford City Coau&ssion on Febmmry 28, 1983. Those conditions
being; A.) K~eping clean and neat the exterior grounds, and B.) Cou,',~icating
with the City on the status of work perfornmd.
your letter stated that in the past four months, nothing has been done, and
that I hava made no effort and perforn~d no function to even show good intent.
Excluding the cleaning of the grounds prior to the City Coumission nmeting in
February. ?ne grounds have been mowed on two occassions, excluding the third
and nDst recent nn~ing on Satur&~y, July 9th. As we have discussed at the
Febmmry Commission meting, our plan ~s to sell the renmining salvageable
items from the building. On t~ occassions in that period, we have held
garage sales, of ~hich were both advertised in DeLsnd and Sanford newspapers.
The garage sales were in part beneficial in removing the n~jority of salv~ge-
able materials. With this task completed, we have proceedad as originally
oatlined to have the remaining "garbage" remDved from the buildings interior.
At 9:00 on July 13, the heavy equipn~nt will be on the property to renDve all
retaining debri.
