Good morning,
I realized that a piece of the documentation is missing for me. The zoning approval letter that Ms. Coleman references asenclosed, I do not have. Could you forward me the email you sent her with that attachment, so I can put it all together onmy end.
We are working on proceeding forward, but the actual steps are proving to be...interesting. I'm pointing at you as a greatcompany to work with on this.
