EX DD 21 121923 RC email to town clarifying issues raised by Kessler

2 of 3 Despite these efforts, Andy Kessler's December 4, 2023, leYer unfortunately conGnues these unsubstanGated complaints. In his email, Mr. Kessler claims that Mr. Kipp’s menGon of a pipe diverGng water, is based on misinformaGon. First, this ellipGcal pipe was not part of the new drywell drainage system installed in connecGon with the backyard improvements. Second, the ellipGcal pipe replaced the exisGng damaged pipe that was already part of the pre-exisGng drainage ditch that runs from the Crystal Point Townhouse community wooded area on the west side of Eagle Ridge Way, through our property at 40 and 42 Eagle Ridge Way. Third, I was told that replacing the pre-exisGng damaged round pipes with an ellipGcal pipe was as an environmentally sensiGve improvement, not a deviaGon. In the spirit of neighborly goodwill, I've made mulGple outreach aYempts to the Kesslers, allowing them to inspect our property during construcGon and addressing concerns about workers encroaching on their land. Unfortunately, these efforts seem to be in vain, as their recent email to you on December 13, 2023, outlines improper demands without acknowledging our aYempts at resoluGon. Despite this ongoing challenge, my wife Monica and I remain commiYed to an amicable resoluGon. We extended an invitaGon to Andy and Jane Kessler on December 8, 2023, for a discussion over coffee to address any legiGmate concerns and find common ground. RegreYably, they have yet to respond. We have asked our engineer to review the as-built construcGon, and we are commiYed to addressing any valid concerns. We are willing to cooperate fully, even if it means making further improvements to address the Kessler’s apprehensions. I understand that you have many pressing maYers to aYend to, and I appreciate your Gme in considering this maYer. Our goal is to maintain transparency and resolve this issue in a manner that benefits both parGes and preserves the harmony of our community. Wishing all of you a joyous holiday season and a happy new year.
