Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, MW 55323 <br />Re Mr. and Mrs. William D. Gregory II—Proposed Deeding <br />and Vacation of Portions of Brackett Avenue <br />Dear Alan: <br />Thank you for the copy of your March 9, 1983 memorandum to Mr. Benson, <br />the Orono City Administrator, which I received on March * <br />believe that there are some potential areas of misunderstanding oe* <br />tween Orono and my clients, and it is my intention in this letter <br />to clarify my clients* position. <br />During the meeting at your office on February 22, 19J3 attended by <br />the two of us and by Bruce Malkerson and John Gerhardson, we dis­ <br />cussed deeding to the City of Orono that portion of Bracket^- Avenue <br />currently being used as a parking area, as well as Block 18 of the <br />old plat of Orono now vacated. In exchange for that deed, and the <br />shoreline, Orono was to vacate the balance of Brackett Avenue. <br />Although it has never been discussed with me or my clients, I <br />in your most recent memorandum that the staff is reco^ena ig that <br />the bulk of Brackett Avenue not be vacated. I would lik*^ > on <br />record as stating that while my clients would agree to dcrec- -o the <br />City of Orono that portion of Brackett Avenue that has bee-« used <br />extensively by the public, they would not be willing to give up <br />any part of Brackett Avenue which was not being used by the public, <br />and which had been treated all these years by all parties as being <br />the Gregory’s own property. <br />Additionally, the Gregory’s neighbors have made it clear that they <br />do not want any part of the railroad right-of-way to be used as <br />part of the parking area. I think that that issue needs more dis­ <br />cussion in order to assure the neighbors and the Gregorys that <br />their rights will be protected, and that the intrusiveness of the <br />parking area be kept to a bare linimum.
