RE: Tom Wood 'Ford Parking Lot Project on Day I)1riiVe
Dear 1Vlernbers of the Board,,
just

family's fine -W .5 Our 131 year old jewelry busi�-�e4ss 1"S located on Day Drive in Carmel,
S tree r A.11, 31 m sure north of 96L1' you are aware, Fr)m Wood Ford has been given a
10

When the parking lot proj ect was bet*n core 9
was requested by me and other property owners of

usage is configured so that the car carriers can use access point from Day Drive to
(:fully loaded car
4 The planned
the large Tom Wood parking lot, allowing them to 1-cVe around and avoid having to back
onto 96`'' Street.. While that is a fine result of their the new usage pattern for Day Drive
will, in my opinion, cause Day Drive to ''be damagccll. i. [ready the traffic from heavy
equipment used to construct the new par9cing lot ha,"; i..,.:-,itiised new cracks to form in the stree't'..
I hope that the Board will see that Tom Wao(:l I ord will be entirely responsible for the
repair and maintenance of Day Drive (as they promu<,,ecl you) and not shared pro-rata (as their
by any attorney to the property owners in an agr���41������1t -NOT SIGNED of the
effected parties).
Thank you for of this c
sincerely,
