DEAR MR. MCMILLAN,
I MUST WITHDRAW MY APPLICATION FOR PEMIT FOR THE DOTSON SHORELINE
STABILIZATION PROJECT. I HOPE TO STOP THE PROCESS BEFORE PERMIT IS ISSUED IN
ORDER TO AVOID PAYING THE FEE AT THIS TIME.
MR. BARNETTE RETURNED MY CALL YESTERDAY. THE APPLICATION IS APPARENTLY
AMONG MANY OTHERS AWAITING PROCESSING IN THE ASHEVILLE OFFICE, AND WILL
NOT BE ISSUED FOR AT LEAST A WEEK. UNFORTUNATELY. THE WATER LEVEL HAS BEEN
RAPIDLY RISING AND W[LL BE AT FULL POND BY NEXT WEEK.
THE ARMY CORP OF ENGINEERS RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS WHICH INCLUDE
EXECUTING THE PROJECT WHILE THE LAKE LEVEL IS DOWN IF POSSIBLE. THAT WILL
NOT BE POSSIBLE UNT[L 2010 IF THE TOWN CONTINUES THE POLICY OF LOWERING THE
LAKE ONLY EVERY THREE YEARS. I WILL PLAN TO REQUEST A PERMIT EARLIER IN 2009
FOR COMPLETION IN 2010.
SINCERELY,
MARY A . DOTSON
