December 22, 2004 Dear Craig and Renee Wickland, I am a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Burnet and represent Steve and Alyson Murray, who are the new owners of the property at 3760 Bayside Road. Part of the Due Diligence process involves analysis of property lines in order to establish setbacks and property use. Our Due Diligence on this property has noted your landscaping encroachment on your east property line. This encroachment is shown both in the Survey of 1998 and in the recent staking of the property lines. Further Due Diligence has noted that your property file at the City of Orono contains a correspondence from Mr. Gary Valerius dated October 26, 1998. In this letter, Christine and Gary Valerius outline their concern and awareness of the encroachment. They reference a letter sent to you in September of that year. In a subsequent conversation with Mr. Valerius, he informed me that you had spoken with him regarding this issue acknowledging the encroachment. Mr. Valerius explained to me that upon seeing the landscaping, and his providing additional screening, he became comfortable with your casual use of this area, however, he was additionally clear that he in no way provided an easement or compromised his ownership of the property as described in the survey. Steve and Alyson Murray have no objection to your current use of this area, subject to discussion with you in order to gain an understanding of the intended casual use. They are equally clear that they grant no easement, temporary or permanent of this land or property line nor does the City of Orono recognize any grants of easement, temporary or permanent of this land or property line. Please feel free to reach me at my office, 952-470-2552 if you would like clarification of any point outlined in this letter or if you would like me to facilitatP a�isc�:ssier.:=.�:th y�u and the Murray's.
