Obtaining the necessary after-the-fact pernuts. 2. Complying with Orono City Codes. In a phone conversation on Thursday, April8th, you seemed to be moving in this direction. You asked that we send you by mail the permit applications and applicable code sections so that process could begin. You, representing Mr. Hoyt, have now denied that any work was done on Mr. Hoyt's property and are appazently treating this as a legal matter. We therefore assume that no cooperation to meet City codes will be forthcoming, and we are forwarding this case to our prosecuting attorney to proceed with a formal complaint. Again, we would have preferred to work with your client rather than against him on this. We are usually able to find a solution that satisfies both the homeowner and City code.

Potts: Please prepare a formal complaint against Bradley A. Hoyt of 2523 Kelly Avenue in Orono. Mr. Hoyt admits to building a retaining wall within 10' to 15' of the shoreline (see attached Exhibit A, page 2, #8). This activity requires a conditional use permit in the City of Orono. Mr. Hoyt has refused to file a conditional use permit application and has now served a summons to the City. Other work in the 0-75' zone that has been done is the construction of a roadway cut into the bank at the lakeshore and placing fill out into the lake to create a flat spot at the lakeshore where previously the bank ended at his waterline (see E�ibit B-topo survey). The above is a violation of Orono Municipal Code Section 10.03, Subdivisions 19 (C) and 21. Please contact me after you have a chance to review this information. I would be happy to meet at your office to discuss.
