City of McCall: May 27, 2000 I am writing this follow-up letter to inform you I am having A spinal fusion back operation on May 311 in Boise. I will not be playing Golf this year. In October I wrote a letter to you requesting a refund of the Unused fees for my annual golf pass. I also requested a refund of my Wife Janet's' annual golf fee, along with the Cart trail fee. My wife Injured her Achilles tendon. She didn't use her golf pass at all. I did receive my refund in November, but didn't receive hers' or the Trail fee. I don't understand why you could refund one, but not the Other? If it is now the City's policy not to refund unused fees, then I feel it is only right to credit me one annual golf pass and a cart trail Fee for the 2001 season, when I will again hopefully be playing again. This is my third and last letter. I would like a response in writing If possible. If I get no response, I will pursue other avenues to get results. Your immediate response would be greatly appreciated.
