RE: Survey of property lines at resort
Dear Mr. Gauwitz:
As I discussed with you and showed you on Aug. 2, 1993, after
locating quite a few existing monuments in the area and measuring
between them we found that the boundary lines of your property are in
fact in the location that you were told.
I further understand, from our coversation, that you have an
easement from your neighbor to the west which should take care of the
cabin encroachment.
This letter also verifies that we measured in excess of 300 feet
between the iron stakes along the shoreline, which checks with what
you should have. At that time you informed me to discontinue our
work.
I have enclosed the statement for our services. If you have any
Thank you for the opportunity to providequestions, please call me.

Very truly yours I
