As you know, the Village of Tequesta has been working with the owners of this property for over a year, attempting to . obtain an ingress and egress easement along the western property line. Reviewing your memorandum of August 26, 1997 to Thomas G. Bradford, it is stated therein the Board was advised that the driveway on this property, not only provided access to the new Village Public - Works facility, but that the Plan had been reconfigured in accordance to an agreement with the Village of Tequesta Water Department. It must be pointed out, that the referenced agreement has not been executed between the Village and Bridge Road Shops. • I respectfully request that any Village Council approval of this landscape plan, contain a condition whereby final approval is contingent upon an executed agreement between the Village and Bridge Shops for the requested easement and associated improvements by the Village. Should you have any questions regarding this request, please advise me accordingly.
