� <br />Mr. 5tanl�y E. Francis <br />July b', 1970 <br />Page 4 <br />Service floahs and protection to the launch ramp From sauthwzst winds and the <br />�vake of passin3 tugs would be lacking. Drainage facilities would be i�oce- <br />quate. No ligi�ting would be ovailcbla. <br />Th�_ Port and the other locol co-sponsors are deeply concerned about implied <br />r=servations of I.A.C. rela�ing to �unding oFacces; rocd lond�ill, subgrade <br />preparation and bosc course conshruciion, (controct bid iPems 8, 9� 10 ond 11) <br />apparentl� predicoted upon possible limited Future use of the roacway by the <br />two adjacent preperty owners. The original site ecquisition costs (oF which <br />I.A. C. 6ore a major share) were reduced very substantially, end in muci greot�r <br />amount than the aggregate costs of �he snid contrccf bid items, :�y the acceptonce <br />of a roadwoy easemenF in lieu of out-right ace;uisition. Further, ihe full accom- <br />plishment of these work items wauld have been an essenYial port of this projecF <br />in any event. The two adjacenF properties already fronF upon and ore served <br />by Norton Avenue. <br />Cruise-a-Home, Inc., in parFicular, has o long cccess frontage on Norton <br />Avenue, and maintains an exisfing operations roodwoy along the soutF�erly side <br />oF its building complex, for utilizo�ion of its interior lonc' area. Nzither owner <br />has any present plans for utilization oF the boat launch access roac'way. Even <br />without the obvious ond convenient direct access from Norton Avznue, the <br />amount of private oviner usage oF the new access roodway would be very small <br />be comparison with the onticipatzd traffic to and from the boot launcii fecility. <br />Furthermore, any private owner usage would occur on week doys non-coincident <br />with peok pu6lic froffic to the boot launch. It is sincerely felt thut u7iy prorata <br />reduction in I,A. C, funding for project access ro:.d improvemen� should be minimal. <br />In conclusion, please regard this letter as a formal request for arnendmer�t o( the <br />existing I,A.C. �rant Agreement No. 7�-U41D to increose the pruject scope <br />and extent oF I.A.C. participation, within the prior agreed funcing limitations, <br />for accomplishment of tFe additional work iFems discussed herein, and listed in <br />the enclosure: hereto.
