Mr. Muhlfelder, Attorney for Residents, stated he was representing Mr. Bakst and Mr. Kramer who were out of Town and was relating their disapproval of this Item as, in their opinion, %, the pathway and drainage problems they had experienced for over a year (documented by letters to the Town) were still not satisfactorily resolved. The City Manager questioned Mr. Muhlfelder as to whether these problems still existed since a gate and pathway improvements had been recently installed and he responded that he was not completely sure of the timing of these complaints.
