above referenced matter. My clients will proceed as follows:
1. All work on the Chelsea Ridge Mall shall cease immediately
(8/25/80) with the exception of work on the fire walls which may continue
through August 31; all work on the project shall cease by September 1, 1980.
2. All plans and documents prerequisite to the receipt of a building
permit which have previously been outlined by the Building Inspector will
be submitted by close of business Friday, August 29, 1980.
3. Upon receipt and review of such plans the Building Inspector will
provide us with a calculation of fees due whereupon said fees shall be
tendered to the Town; any downstream drainage fees required will be paid
subject to the reservation of a right for a further determination of the
applicability of such fees.
4. The documents and plans submitted will be expeditiously reviewed
by the Building Inspector upon his receipt of same.

recognition by the Town of any vested rights which the applicant has or
may subsequently claim.
It is my understanding that as we proceed in this manner in good
faith the Town will forebear taking any legal action so long as we pro-
ceed in an open/cooperative and timely manner. Likewise, it is our reason-
able hope and expectation that the agencies and officers of the Town will
act in good faith in their review and processing of the various documenta-
tion associated with this project.
I would again like to take the opportunity to thank the Town Board,
the Building Inspector and yourself for the time you took to help us
formulate an approach to resolving this difficult and complex matter. I
trust that we're all on the right track.
Very truly yours,
Gerald A. Lennon
