Subject:Re: 82 Harbor Road
Ok. We have decided on a landscaper and will tell him that the back area is within the wetlands and will need
conservation approval as well for our rock wall plan.
The previous owner showed us the stakes that were in place on the property that she had recently surveyed along the
side border and rear. She said her yard ended 3-4 feet beyond her current grass and that visually matched up with the
markings that were found on the corners of the lot. So my father just raked the dirt that was ground from the back hill
over about 2 feet beyond where our grass ended to make a line from front marker to rear marker. If required, we can
get a surveyor out as soon as possible to verify this before the 20th and if I’m violation remedy it immediately. I will have
my landscaper put up all the necessary erosion blankets and barriers right away so that we are in compliance with the
enforcement order by the deadline of the 20th.
My father speaks broken English and would not be any help to me to attend the meeting, but we will take care of the
items in time without having to file an extension. If the survey shows we did encroach onto the property bounds I will
have my landscaper pull back the dirt.
Thank you for your assistance.

> I am writing in regards to my home at 82 Harbor Rd. I did receive the documents you sent a couple weeks ago and are
in the process of hiring a landscaper to provide a plan for the back yard where the property climbs into the woods My
father who lives part time in Yarmouth, cleaned up the hill to remove all the leaves and poison ivy and broken wooden
wall and stair supports leading up the hill as it posed a danger to my children and dogs. Our plan is to construct a 3.5 ft
natural rock wall topped with small trees and plantings directly behind the house within our property limits. I believe we
have narrowed it down to two local companies. They will be handling the project as I live off cape.

> On a separate matter- Today I received another letter regarding 86 Harbor, the lot adjacent to ours where the pictures
sent to me are from. This is not where my father did his work. I have the plot plan and there are still surveyed markers
on the land from the previous owner. When I called him to ask exactly what he did, he says he followed the marked lot
lines to the rear of the house when cleaning the back hill and he did not do anything beyond that knowing we were
researching landscape companies. The pictures you sent of #86 is not the area he did any work, and I have no further
knowledge on that regard as I have not yet moved in and did not see anything that may have taken place there, or
when. I’ve also asked my father if he had seen anything happening on the lot next door and he did not.

service and will be coming to the town with their plan to see if they require any permitting. That will probably happen
some time this month. There is currently no work being done, and again, I can not help any further with the photos of
the abutting side property as that is not the area where my father did any work.
