Dear Dale:
I have done some additional research regarding the trash dumpsters and your
pending lease agreement, so ensure you can fully comply with the language Jason Ells
forwarded. It is our opinion that you can comply with the language and this issue should
not prohibit you from signing the pending lease. However, we feel compelled to advise
you of several things that factor into this decision.
The Light and Power Department is OK with the plan attached, which is the
original sketch we issued. in November of 2005. Although this proposed transformer
location is outside of the Light and Power Department's normal requirements, they are
willing to work with us because of the very limited space available. They are willing to
allow the placement of the dumpsters as shown on this- sketch, provided the dumpsters
are all on wheels and can be moved out of the way in case they need to access the
transformer.
i spoke with the ,Zoning Department this morning to ensure there were no other
requirements from their department we have not addressed. Since this is a change of use
from retail to restaurant, they will require a new trash enclosure. The trash enclosure
can be a wood picket fence, 6' high, and it's sole purpose is to screen the trash area from
public view. They will have to approve this plan and proposed new trash enclosure
work in order to obtain a permit. I think we can squeeze in the fence, but the gate access
may be a bit challenging. I also advised Mr. Barnes that we have no room for recycling,
which although not an absolute requirement it is highly encouraged. If we can find some
way to add recycling to the area we'll address that as we develop the final plans.
We also have to move the gas line to the building in order to place the
transformer at it's new location. Currently, the gas line runs directly underneath where
the transformer will go and must be relocated. This was not known until locates were
done, and this cost is not included with the transformer budget.

Lastly, please do not forget that with the new transformer will be a new set of electrical
secondary service gear for the building - and all tenants_ This work was not included in the
budget provided for the new transformer. It is our opinion that at least some of this cost should
be shared by Noodles and Company as part of their tenant finish work.
You can see from the attached sketch this is tight, but feasible. The dimensions are
mostly accurate, but in this case a few inches does make a difference. Our proposed plan will
allow for some dimensional variables within a few inches. Please review and advise of any
questions.
Sincerely,
