to Mr. Ames J. Glendenning, and that a copy of same
be incorprated into the minutes of this meeting®
"At a special meeting of the Town Board held in
the evening of Tuesday, April 30, 1 was instructed to
write you concerning the building which you are now
constructing across Fall giver near the Westerly end of
Elkhorn Avenue.
The Town Board believes that the construction
of the piers in the channel of the river constitutes a
grave hazard not only to private property, but also to
the streets of the Town and particularly, Elkhorn Ave.
The Town Board believes that the congestion
of the channel of Fall River by the construction of the
piers in the channel will cause the river to back up
and overflow during times of high water, and when this
occurs, the natural course for the overflow to take is
along Elkhorn Avenue.
The purpose of this letter is to advise you of
the hazard which, exists and to further advise you that
if the construction is carried out as you have planned,
that the Town will expect you to save them harmless
from any loss by reason of any overflow of the River
which results from your construction."
The above motion ras carried by the following
vote, Yes: trustees, Albright, Brodie, Casey, Lindley
and Watson. No: None.
There being no further business to come before the meeting
it was regularly moved seconded and carried that the
meeting adjorn.
