We have taken the following deductions from our rent payment for the moa'ch of
September 2001. We have incurred extr~ expengef in trying to obtain access to the rental
building at 245 g. ailroad Avehue. The sti'~et r~'pairs that have been ongoing this summer
have hindered us signifietmtly in our normal mode ofvperation. We hav~ nol been able
to access this building with much ease. Early in the summer we were told that we would
only be inconvenienced for a weak or two. We had to make Portzen Construction gain us
access temporarily in the month of June, Then starting after [he fourth of July we have
not had access through our normal loading dock. To this date we still do not have aCCess
and it looks to bo several weeks at best before we vail.
In order to r~rnow some product we have had to inconvenience another rentae by
hauling material t~ough his building, hire some ~l~eciat truckfing and use extra personnel
to haul th, material, The deductions you see are for the follov, dng:
I. Ar~ ?ape Transfer bill for flatbed = $t33.00 (copy ofbill attached)
2. Extra Labor to load trucks -~ $t75.04
(10.5 hours C~ $16.67 per hour)
This com~s to a total deduction of $308.04. We have sent a oMok in the amount of
$q204.77. If you have any queationt please feel free to give me a call.
