I'd like to set up a face-to-face <br />meeting at the council-member's earliest convenience to try and get this resolved; I have <br />complete documentation of all transactions, contacts, and conversations. Additionally <br />Duane Schwartz, Public Works Director, is familiar with the situation, and has been <br />sympathetic and helpful to the extern he could be. <br />I thank you in advance and look forward to hearing from someone soon. <br />Sincerely, <br />Bobbie J.
