Subject: Stanley Sub....Letter from attorney Mr. Matt Henderson..etc
Dear Supervisors Connelly, Kirk, Lambert, Teeter, and Wahl,
We hope you all have had a chance to read the eight page letter sent to you from Mr. Matt
Henderson, the attorney from Walnut Creek. It is most interesting and enlightening.
He points out some of the errors that accompanied the planning commissions decision to
deny the subdivision and their subsequent findings. He also makes the case that there is
no legal reason this subdivision shouldn't be approved. The way I read his letter and
analysis, it will be difficult for the supervisors and county attorneys to make findings that
can be defended, if the subdivision is denied. Staff is recommending approval.
I would like to point out ONE very critical point. There is only ONE neighbor in this whole
area of the STANLEY AVE. NEIGHBORHOOD, that could be potentially affected or
impacted by the supervisors approval of this subdivision, and that is Mr. George Nicolaus,
the walnut farmer to the south. Under the county's RIGHT to FARM provision, that should
be protection enough, but we are willing to take it one step further. We are offering
to record a deed restriction that will consist of a waiver of all the lot owners rights to legally
contest any properly conducted farming practices. This waiver shall include, but shall not
be limited to, any dusts, sprays, noise or additionally, anything that may become an
annoyance or inconvenience to the lot owners. We hope this helps.
Thanks, and we will see you all on Tuesday.
Nels Leen
