Dear Bob:
Sdrmetime during the second or third week of December 1974
a project for Unit 2, Sebastian Highlands, was started to
provide proper swale drainage. Early in January this
project was left uncmmpleted. Two months have now passed
and nothing has been done on it.
Dempsey Avenue between Vickers and Sembler Streets was
started first and a lot of fill was put in. For instance,
in front of my house at 644 Dempsey fill was put in over
20 feet from the street over my lawn. Fifteen feet was to
be the maximum.they should have gone. Also, a hole was
dug to provide a drain for my soft water conditioner utlet
which, of course, has completely filled in by this time.
In addition, two sections of my driveway were cracked due
to the heavy equipment going back and forther across it add
a large chunk near the road was completely broken off.
There was a cut made across Dempsey Avenue at the corner
cf Joy which due to the rain, the street is now a hazard to
drive on, plus the fact that a cut was made in the driveway
on the corner of Vickers and wall.is Streets.
The City and myself feel that this situation should be
immediately cleared up. Because of not oompleting the
drainage on Dempsey Avenue, when it rains hard the water
stands not as deep as before, but still stands on that
block.
would certainly appreciate your immediate attention to
this matter.
Very truly yours,
F. Eugene Cragg
Mayor
