Sinc Yol Schwartz Pla ng Director Cc: Criss Gunderson, Architect Printed on Recycled Paper w • • December 11, 2009 Planning Commission Dear Planning Commission members: I wanted to take a moment to send you the documentation to which I referred in you November 17, 2009 meeting. In this meeting I told the Planning Commission that I had come to the meeting to ensure that the covered porch expansion would not occur on or near my property and to remind the City that I believe that several feet of my neighbors' second driveway and landscaping is on my property. In 2002 when their driveway was built and landscaping completed, I expressed my concern to the Community Association that I would lose my property because their driveway was on my land and by all appearances it looks like their property. I used as proof that my property corner monument was removed when their driveway was built and that several feet of asphalt which was on my property was removed. The Don Crocker said that the plan the Association had approved for 16 Crest had the neighbor's driveway going up to their property line but not beyond it --see attached approval map. My neighbor did not agree that the area in contention is on my property. The Association said that a new survey would need to be done. My neighbors did not want to pay for this and neither did I. Per our discussion following these meeting the Nagelhout's suggested that to protect my property rights and yet avoid paying for a survey, they would provide me with the attached letter and would also send a letter to the Association which recognizes that we disagree on where the property line is and that by waiting to correct this encroachment until a survey is done at some point in the future, I am not in any way relinquishing my property rights. I send these attachments to you to ensure that the City remains informed that a property line dispute exists and that I have in no way relinquishing my property rights. Thank you for your time ols Road West Rolling Hills, Ca. 90274 RECEIVED DEC 1 1 2009 City of Rolling Hills By December 29, 20Q2 Ms. Cathy Nichols 14 Crest Road W Rolling Hills, CA 90274 Dear Cathy: The purpose of this letter is clarify our belief and intention that ifa portion of the driveway and/or landscaping on the east side of our property, although approved by permit with the Community Association, encroaches upon your property, that this in no way eradicates your right to ownership of that portion of the property. In addition, it is our belief and intention that this applies to all successor owners of your property and our property. We have both agreed for economic reasons not to perform a professional survey to determine the degree to which the driveway and/or landscaping may encroach upon your property. We acknowledge your belief that the driveway and/or landscaping does encroach upon your property, and should a condition arise to require a professional survey, we will engage a mutually agreeable engineering firm to perform the survey. Cathy, thank you for working out this issue with us in a cordial and collaborative manner. We have enjoyed having you as a neighbor and look forward to a long and friendly relationship as part of the Rolling Hills Community. Sincerely, • _ Lt /Robert V. Nagelhout & vr`Julie A.
