April 9, 1963
To the Town Board
Town of Queensbury
Dear Sirs :
As you may be aware, I purchased the lot and later had a
home constructed at 5 Northup Drive, during the year 1962.
This spring being my first experience in handling any
problems to do with a water condition in the cellar of the
. home, I would like to report to you that I have been bothered
with water which made installation of a cellar pump necessary.
As you all know I am within the Broadacres drainage
district, so I will be taxed for same as all my neighbors are.
I feel that if any improvement in this ground water condition
can be accomplished, I surely would appreciate same..
Very truly yours,
Irving Esner
