Subject: 	Re: Public Access Easement

Jean,

1.  Easements from Rando and McAdam.  Need to define the limits more clearly with metes and bounds and thick line weight.  There is a thin unlabeled dashed line which could be assumed to be the easement limit.  However, best for all concerned in the future to adequately delineate the limits in the easement deed.
 
2.  Definition of Portland Trails Easement.  It would benefit all in the future to have a metes and bounds description defining the limits in the easement deed.  Otherwise one would be assuming the limits based on lines.  Description would have N xx-xx-xx W  xxx.xx feet along the face of a granite curb (or some other defining feature) for each bound.
 
3.  Who will build the stairs?  Several sets of stairs are shown on the plan.  Plan does not state who will construct the stairs.  Paragraph 1 Grant of Easement appears to make Portland Trails responsible for stairs construction.

Jean, It should be also noted the proposed stairway to East Cove is directing people onto private property.  I know of no pedestrian easement along East Cove St.

Hi
 
The plan showing the area of the public access easement as just arrived and is attached and in e-plan.
 
In case it changes any of your comments or raises any new issues that I should include in the Report.
 
thanks
Jean
