Flower and 2383 N Flower being given to the owners of 2383 N. Flower- hearing set for 8/15 - CANCEL APP Attachments: alley between 2379 and 2383 flower doc from 1925.pdf, dispute claim about alley not usea blel MG_6988.J PG Dear Ms. Carvalho I spoke with Jessie Lopez last week and she was going to reach out to you so we could set up a meeting tomorrow Monday 8/7/23 1 have not heard back from her or your office I am leaving town August 81" and won't be back until the evening of August 151". (8/15 is the hearing) Please reread my email below regarding 2383 owner application to vacant an easement. I have sent other emails as well. I will reforward after this email I do not believe this to be an easement and have paperwork from 1925 showing the city was given this property. I also sent you an email from California Title Company, with an opinion of a Chicago title report that was presented to The City with the application. Please review. I am not sure if the City is relying on the Chicago title report (presented by 2383 owner) to confirm the easement? As that is the only title document that refers to an easement ... and there is an email trail of the owner at 2383 flower directing Chicago title how to draft. I will send that to you as well. I respectfully request that this application be immediately withdrawn or denied. I believe the owner made false claims about crime and the width of the alley. Three generations of my family have lived in the neighborhood. We have never experienced crime .... and have never had any problem going thru the alley There is a wonderful family that is currently renting the house from me and expecting a baby shortly. They were shocked when I told them what the neighbor was trying to do. They like the alley and are also opposing this as it will affect them as well I asked them about crime ... and they said the neighbor is incorrect. There is no issue there with crime. My gardener/tenant access the alley regularly to maintain the beautiful hedge over the block wall/and cana lilies along the alley side of my lot This alley is beautifully maintained and is an asset to the neighborhood. I did ask for everyone in the City group email sent last week to respond. I only heard from Public Works and Jessie Lopez. I would like to come into your office to discuss this. I have spoken with an attorney who told me this is not an easement. He said he will come with me to the meeting tomorrow..... and asked me to let you know ... 10-15 minutes is all that is needed. If you are busy and agree with me to stop this process immediately, that is fine also. Please send something in writing. Whatever it takes to stop what I consider to be a dishonest application application from the owners at 2383 N. Flower Please let me know your thoughts and if we can meet. Thanks, Cheryl Newton 1
