RE: ADU
Drew,
Thanks for the update. In the meantime, no one should occupy the ADU until it's permitted and
approved.

Dear John,
I hope this message finds you well as winter approaches.
We have secured approval for water from the Basalt Water Conservancy District and are submitting a
new well permit application in accordance with our attorney's recommendations. I would be happy to
forward the relevant correspondence if you would like to review it.
Our property is equipped with a septic system and tank designed to accommodate the approved number
of bedrooms plus one additional unit.
The recent home renovation exceeded $1 million in costs, leaving no remaining funds to address the ADU
at this time. You will be the first to know when we proceed through the proper channels to formalize the
ADU.
Best regards, Drew Taylor

Hi Drew,
Per some conversations we had, you were going to pull a building permit to legitimize the ADU.
The ADU is supposed to be disconnected from the septic until it can be legitimized.
I wondering what the timeframe is for that to happen. As I believe you have moved into the primary
residence already.
