Dear Mrs. Paschall:

This will answer the first part of your letter of February 22nd
regarding the condition of the sewer reported by Mrs. Nannie McCormick

his

of 16843 Oakmont Drive, N.W.

Mts. McCormick is a school teacher and we have had some trouble
tacting her; however, our Mr. Ken Lancaster has contacted Mrs,
ormick concerning the sewer odor and inefficiency of sewers in the
o Drive and Argyle Drive area of Lincoln Homes. We believe the

deposits that have accumulated in these lines is the trouble
we have instructed our construction superintendent to flush and
these lines, After the completion of this work,if the sewers

e still operating inefficiently, we will initiate a program of
udy to determine what is necessary to alleviate the sanitary sewer
problems in this area.

in response to the statement by Mrs, McCormick concerning the
drowning of a child in Proctor Creek last year, I would like to bring
it to theirattention with your Community Relations Commission that
the property owners in this area are responsible for fencing the
creek in their back yard, as most of the property runs to the center
of the creek and is the responsibility of the abutting property owners;
and it would be up to them for the safety of their children and for
their neighbors children in connection with the flooding of Proctor
Creek in heavy rains that they fence their backyards to protect the
children. This is not a responsibility nor a function of any
governmental agency.

Yours truly,

—F alte
