PRESCOTT INFORMED THE BOARD THAT HE HAD TO COME BEFORE THE BOARD IN 1974 TO GET A WAIVER TO BUILD A HOUSE IN THIS SAME AREA BECAUSE OF THE ONE ACRE REQUIREMENT.

PRESCOTT IS HERE FOR PRECISELY THE REASON THAT THE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS WERE CHANGED, WHICH WAS BECAUSE PEOPLE HAD MISUNDERSTANDINGS ABOUT THE ROADS, ETC. ATTORNEY COLLINS INFORMED MR.

PRESCOTT STATED THAT HE INHERITED THE PROBLEM FROM SOMEONE ELSE, AND HE HAD NO PROBLEM UNTIL THEY DID NOT CUT THE DITCHES AND ACTUALLY SLOPED THE DITCHES BACK TO HIS PROPERTY. HE REITERATED THAT IT IS NOT HIS PROBLEM; IT IS SOMEBODY ELSE `S PROBLEM THAT IS CAUSING HIM A PROBLEM. ATTORNEY COLLINS STATED THAT HE DID NOT WISH TO ARGUE WITH MR. PRESCOTT.
