Any letters written by E.Hewlwtt Kent in the Town's record.
If you contend that any of the records I am seeking, or any portion thereof, are exempt from

acknowledge receipt of this public records request and (2) make a good faith effort which
"includes making reasonable efforts to determine from other officers or employees within the

I am, therefore, requesting that you notify every individual in possession of records that may be
responsive to this public records request to preserve all such records on an immediate basis.
If any records are readily available, please produce those records first without waiting for all
responsive records to be available. Produce the less readily available records as soon as they are
available.

records in the original electronic format in which they were created or received. See

If you anticipate the production of any of these public records to exceed $1.00 please notify me
in advance of their production with a written estimate of the total cost. Please be sure to itemize
any estimates so as to indicate the total number of pages and/or records, as well as to distinguish
the cost of labor and materials. If any records may be produced for less than $1.00, please
produce those records first while waiting to obtain authorization from me to produce more costly
records. Do not incur any costs that you expect me to pay which are greater than $1.00 until first
obtaining my authorization to do so.

Mr. E. Scott Harrington

Dear Scott:
Joan orthwein informed me a seat on the Architectural Review and
Planning Board is opening up. I would like to be considered as a
potential candidate for the position.
The challenges of maintaining the integrity and feel of the Town,
while not blocking "progress" is an interesting and delicate matter.
The Architectural Review and Planning Board is a great forum to help
balance the sometimes grandiose designs of persons building and
renovating houses against the desire of the community to maintain the
"feel" and beauty of the Town. The Planning Boards "Gulf Stream
Design Manual" is already a fantastic and comprehensive tool to help
define acceptable and appropriate architectural design.
Although I have no formal background in architectural design, I have
always had a keen interest in the design process that yields a
structure that is esthetically pleasing and appropriate for its
surroundings. I have had the fortune to grow up in family houses
designed by well -known architects including John Volk and Howard
Major. My maternal Great Grandfather was a fairly well known
architect in his time and is more recently remembered for his design
of the ceiling mural currently being restored in New York's Grand
Central Station.
I am currently a trustee of the Vermont Historical Society Trust
which maintains Kents Corner in Montpelier, Vermont, designed and
built by Abdiel Kent my paternal Great Great Grandfather. I am also a
Trustee of the Atwater Kent Museum Trust which helps to maintain the
Museum that my paternal Grandfather Atwater Kent gave to Philadelphia
as a museum of the history of Philadelphia.
I suppose that a great part of my interest in Architecture stems from
being raised in a family which has always been interested in
building, maintaining and preserving the integrity of structures and
items that have endured because of their inherently correct and
balanced design.
It would be a great pleasure and honor to serve on the Architectural
Review and Planning Board of Gulf Stream.
Sincerely yours,
E. Hewlett Kent
