The foregoing improvements are of great importance to the

amended, and applicable County regulations until on or about
January 9, 1986. The Town acknowledges its obligation to proceed

request you to authorize the issuance of a building permit for
the project at this time, subject to all other applicable rules
and regulations, pending action on the Use by Special Review
Permit by the Planning Commission.
In connection with this request, the Town acknowledges and
agrees that by beginning construction on the basis set forth
above, it does not have, nor will it acquire any vested rights
whatever to continue with construction pending the order of the

Planning Commission, or following such order if the Planning
Commission does not approve the Use by Special Review. In such
event, the Town will be required to proceed in accordance with
applicable State law.
Your consideration of this request is greatly appreciated.
If you have any questions, please contact the undersigned, the
consulting engineer for the project, or the Town' s attorney,
whose names and addresses are set forth below.
Very truly yours,
