Subject: Board of Appeal on the walker Case
To: Construction Board of Appeal, Derek Johnson, Katie Lichtig
Subject: Thursday January 28, 2016 Hearing
Yesterday, I attended the hearing on the appeal brought by the Walker family regarding their property on
Fredericks Street. I hope the family appeals the Board's decision to the City Council because I believe they
have a strong case that will attract the attention of many in the City.
I do not intend to make many comments on yesterday's decision, except that I found it terribly disturbing to see
the Walkers made responsible for things done to the house years before they bought it. Even more disturbing
was the decision of the Board to deliberate at length with the Staff while at the same time forbidding the
plaintiffs to say anything. The Staff was not there for mere information, they were the accusers, therefore far
from being an objective party, but the Board did not question their answers. On the other hand, when the
courteous young lawyer representing the Walkers once tried to correct a comment, he was politely told to shut
up. What kind of justice is this? You are supposed to be an impartial Board, but you were not at all impartial
yesterday.
Sincerely,
Odile Ayral
