Dear Neighborhood Representative:
This office is in receipt of a copy of an application from:
Kevin Richard for a Curb Cut at the location of 149 Upland Road with a Frontage of 40', Setback 7.9', Distance from
surrounding structures 1', Length 24', Width 10' and a total Square Footage of 240.
The City Council has directed that all curb cut petitions be submitted to the appropriate Neighborhood
Associations for the locality where the curb cut would be made, so that the association may have an opportunity for
review, prior to action by the City Council.
Please indicate by return mail your approval or disapproval of the petition within twenty-one days from the date
of this letter. If the response is "disapproval" please state reasons. Be sure to sign the form and include a daytime phone
number. I have enclosed a self-addressed stamped envelope to facilitate your reply.
As soon as this office has received both the completed application and your neighborhood association response, I
will place the petition on the agenda for the next City Council meeting. If I do not receive a response from your
neighborhood organization by twenty-one days from the date of this letter, I will place the petition on the agenda for the
next City Council meeting.
If your neighborhood association cannot complete its review by twenty-one days from today, you may extend the
reply time another seven days by requesting an extension by letter to me with a copy to the petitioner. However, I urge
you to make every effort to complete your review as soon as possible.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely yours,
Diane P. LeBlanc
City Clerk
