Y. ' Dear Mr. Gordon: I am calling your attention to a nuisance condition which is building up on the corner of Sherman Avenue and West Mountain Road. Over the past se'treral weeks, it has become increasingly evident that an automobile wrecking and junking business is being built up on the southwest corner of this intersection. ' It is my belief that there is an, ordinance in the Town of Queensbury against such an establishment and I believe that early steps should be taken to correct this, situa- ti on. In addition to this condition, a couple of rough board shacks have been built on the lower end of this property in which people are living and which add to the unsightly condition of the property. The occupants of these shacks have built a wire fence enclosure in which they harbor an unknown number of mongrel dogs whose incessant barking and howling create a major disturbance both day and ni4ht. I request some action from the Town Board of Queensbury for the abatement of this nui saAce. Yours very truly, L. G. Brockelsby, The Board audited claims as follows: 233 SCHEDULE OF AUDITS FOR THE TOWN QF. QUI�N SBURY, _WARIIEN_C GUNTY, . NOW YORK,.
