March 4, 1995 <br /> Jeanne A. Mabusth <br /> Building and Zoning Administrator <br /> P.O. Box 66 <br /> Crystal Bay, In <br /> 55323-0066 <br /> In the fall of 1965 , I purchased a small hobby farm <br /> at 665 Orchard Park Road. Our family horse of 18 years <br /> had been a boarder there along with two other horses on <br /> the 5 acre tract . <br /> It had a small pond on it , about 15 ft across, and we <br /> could enjoy the entire 5 acres with a riding path up and <br /> around the hill, a beautiful piece of land. <br /> Since purchasing it , two new homes have been constructed <br /> in the area. Water levels seem to have been re-directed, and <br /> the 'pond' kept enlarging.Iiraculously stopping at the fence <br /> line of the neighbor lower down. The ground used to appear <br /> straight across there but I haven' t checked for ' dredging. ' <br /> Now the big new house to the north is finished and up <br /> for sale, with the hoses coming out of the newly contoured <br /> land and fills and aimed at their man-made 'lake ' --as it <br /> was advertized. <br /> The new man-made lake ( our pond) is now seven feet deep <br /> and has made one-half of our 5 acre land completely inaccesible <br /> to us! Many trees have died, our fence posts have caved in, <br /> and it is very evident to me that laws have been violated <br /> at the expense of our land. <br /> I would appreciate your looking in to this matter; it <br /> has gone on much too long without complaint . <br /> Madalen Pidgeon <br /> 888-3691 <br /> 425-2072, Tues Only <br /> MAR 6 1995 <br />
