[Mintwood-place] The Final Stage

[Carolyn Bartholomew]

Dear Karyn:

Thank you for your work on this unending and unpleasant project.  I am
writing to let you know that the sidewalk in front of 1869 Mintwood already
has a fairly large crack in it. This crack is troubling because it seems to
be further evidence of the shoddy workmanship which the contractors have
demonstrated throughout the project.  Will the contractors fix the crack in
the sidewalk before they leave?  And, have we been subjected to 9 months of
incessant construction and destruction only to have it fall apart within a
matter of months?

Thank you for your attention to my concerns.

Sincerely,
Carolyn Bartholomew
1869 Mintwood
