Pursuant to Minn. Stat. 548.05 my clients have civil claims against you for three times the <br /> damages sustained as a result of your trespasses. In addition, your actions have <br /> amounted to a nuisance as prohibited by Minn. Stat. 561.01, which also includes civil <br /> remedies. <br /> The above remedies apply to the private property owned by my clients. Your activities <br /> have also damaged the unopened public right of way in the areas abutting my clients' L-0?) <br /> properties. I trust that you have been advised that only an abutting owner has the right A^ <br /> to perform maintenance on unopened right of way, without a city permit. Your property n,'')abuts unopened right of way for 110 feet along the west property line and for 410 <br /> approximately 188 feet along the south property line. In those abutting areas, the City of <br /> Orono permits you to control weeds and to mow without a permit, provided that you do//, <br /> not alter the natural state of the land. /�I <br /> The City's policies clearly grant the same maintenance rights to my clients. In the rights <br /> of way areas between my clients' properties, they alone have the right to choose whether <br /> and how to maintain the right of way. "Self-help" is not available to non-abutting owners <br /> except under permit issued by the City of Orono. My clients have not given you <br /> permission to cut, mow or maintain any of the right of way abutting their properties. This <br /> letter is notice to you that you may not undertake any maintenance activities in the <br /> unopened right of ways except as may be permitted by the City of Orono. <br /> Thank You <br /> Very truly yours, <br /> Peter W. Johnson <br /> Counsel to G. Jabbour, N. Farnes, and F.
