He noted that the right-of-way was not accessible for any maintenance in the rear; it was a difficult problem and he agreed that Mr. and Mrs. Smith had a severe problem. Mr. Schindehette stated that this was not an easy problem and no matter where FP&L would put this line, somebody would have the poles in the front or the back of . their property.
