McCall, Idaho 83638 June 17, 1993 Bud Schmidt, City Administrator McCall City Hall P. O. Box 1065 McCall, Idaho 83638 Re: 4" Pressure Transite Pipe - Rio Vista #4 Dear Bud: Telephone: (208) 634-7118 FAX (208) 634-5880 This is a follow-up of our conversation of Wednesday, June 16th. I have been doing some work for John and Cherie Tritz who have recently acquired Lot 14, Block 6 in Rio Vista 4 and are building a home on that site. In the course of the construction, it became apparent that a 4" pressure line crosses a portion of that property, restricting its full utilization by the Tritz's. Fortunately, in part, its transite crosses within the building setback buffer zone and, thus, does not preclude the use of the lot for development purposes but does limit its siting aspects beyond what would be required solely for building setback purposes. The lot in question is Lot 14 and I have enclosed some sketches indicating what the problem appears to be. Exhibit A is supposedly the as built, Exhibit B is one that somebody in the public works Department provided and Exhibit C is one that we have created which appears to represent the actual location. Obviously, if it had been located pursuant to the as built, it would present no problem whatsoever and, even in the case of the actual, it is not insurmountable. The Tritz's paid $30,000.00 for the lot this last February and we would like to propose to formalize a grant to the City of the easement to be documented at their expense and to the extent they need to document it in exchange for a sum of money equivalent to the "current costs of a sewer hookup". My clients feel this would be a reasonable resolution of the situation. We realize that one could argue that the City may well have acquired some kind of a prescriptive right in the past. However, the burden of persuasion in such event would be upon the City and, as we all realize there is no certainty Bud Schmidt Page 2 June 17, 1993 that the evidence sufficient to support that even exists nor, if it does, whether it would be sufficient to carry that burden. It would appear to me that the suggested resolution by compromise would probably be a much more cost effective way of dealing with the issue for all concerned. Rather than present a formal claim to the City I would appreciate it if you would run this by the Council as an information item/informal suggestion and, if they are in agreement, we will be more than happy to formalize it from this end. Please advise. Best regards, KILLEN & KERRICK, P.A. /a //• .o M. lei//s ,J William M.
