Title
Appeal of Catherine Wyatt to a Summary Abatement Order at 2027 STILLWATER AVENUE EAST.
Date/Time of 1st LH: July 7, 2015 at 11:00 a.m.
Purpose of Appeal: I firmly disagree with the order stating that the "...stakes and obstructions along the driveway property line is causing an exit obstruction, interferes or renders dangerous for passage and a hazard for emergency reponse vehicels." I am not clear as to what the "obstructions" referenced are? There are poles/stakes alongside my driveway, against the edge of my driveway. As you can see from the pictures attached, vehicles are free to enter and exit the driveway. These poles on my driveline in no way interfere with any one entering and exiting. The real issue is the neighbor cannot back up in a straight line and continues to drive over onto my driveway, thereby causing the edge of the asphalt to break and crumble. I have on several occasions asked her not to drive over the edge of my driveway. (I do have copies of all the communication with this neighbor, if needed.)
Date of Order(s) Under Appeal: June 25, 2015
