Per suggestion the in your summary, I would like to confirm that Dell-EMC is willing to take responsibility for ownership, maintenance and upkeep of the lights and appurtenances as part of the roadway acceptance. We will work in collaboration with the Southborough DPW and Town Counsel on an appropriate agreement to properly document this agreement. Thank you again for your continued assistance and cooperation on this matter. aul Fitz eràld V. P. Facili e and eal Estate Dept.

The DPW’s engineer requested some changes on the as-built plans and also that a pedestrian sign that was knocked down be re-installed. Fuss and O’Neill also requested that two catch basin hoods be installed. The roadways are constructed well, the comments are being addressed and the as-builts reflect the constructed roadways, therefore the DPW continues to recommend accepting the roadways. The entity performing snow removal on the roadways is outside of the acceptance criteria and I apologize for bringing it up as part of this conversation before. This issue has been resolved. Specifically, I have spoken with Dell’s snow removal contractor and I am confident that we can come up with a snow removal contract that will not affect the DPW’s existing snow removal operations and that will keep the Coslin Drive and Washington Street area clear of snow and ice. After meeting with representatives from Dell and Beals and Thomas, and with the Town Planner, on site yesterday, I re-checked the plans and can confirm that street tights were part of the subdivision submission. I still believe that the Town should not take on liability for the lights. However, the Town has recently given a license to an association so that they could install street lights on the right of-way. Therefore. I recommend that the Town work with Dell to see if they will agree to hold a license for the ownership, maintenance and upkeep of the lights and appurtenances.

  • Few Americans in the 1790S Would Have Predicted That the Subject Of
    AMERICAN NAVAL POLICY IN AN AGE OF ATLANTIC WARFARE: A CONSENSUS BROKEN AND REFORGED, 1783-1816 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jeffrey J. Seiken, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor John Guilmartin, Jr., Advisor Professor Margaret Newell _______________________ Professor Mark Grimsley Advisor History Graduate Program ABSTRACT In the 1780s, there was broad agreement among American revolutionaries like Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton about the need for a strong national navy. This consensus, however, collapsed as a result of the partisan strife of the 1790s. The Federalist Party embraced the strategic rationale laid out by naval boosters in the previous decade, namely that only a powerful, seagoing battle fleet offered a viable means of defending the nation's vulnerable ports and harbors. Federalists also believed a navy was necessary to protect America's burgeoning trade with overseas markets. Republicans did not dispute the desirability of the Federalist goals, but they disagreed sharply with their political opponents about the wisdom of depending on a navy to achieve these ends. In place of a navy, the Republicans with Jefferson and Madison at the lead championed an altogether different prescription for national security and commercial growth: economic coercion. The Federalists won most of the legislative confrontations of the 1790s. But their very success contributed to the party's decisive defeat in the election of 1800 and the abandonment of their plans to create a strong blue water navy.

  • Thomas Jefferson, Congress, and the Gunboat Debate, 1802
    IN SEARCH OF A MORE REPUBLICAN NAVAL DEFENSE: THOMAS JEFFERSON, CONGRESS, AND THE GUNBOAT DEBATE, 1802-1810 A Thesis Presented to The Faculty and Department of History Liberty University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History By Ethan Zook December, 2019 1 Acknowledgements I was introduced to Thomas Jefferson in 2003, the two hundredth anniversary of the Lewis and Clark expedition. I was a member of a high school group which traced the route of the Corps of Discovery across the United States; we read Jefferson’s papers and considered themes like empire building and republicanism. That summer was my first encounter with his thought, and I was hooked. I’m grateful to Myron Blosser and Elwood Yoder, my high school teachers from Eastern Mennonite High School, who started my quest to better understand Jefferson. I’m also thankful for the assistance of scholars who graciously provided materials and suggestions. Craig L. Symonds, author of Navalists and Antinavalists, kindly (and completely unexpectedly) responded to my “out of the blue” email with encouragement and suggestions. Gene A. Smith assisted my search for a copy of his book For the Purposes of Defense. Christopher R. Sabick, Archaeological Director at the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum, provided a copy of Eric Emery’s archeological survey of the gunboat USS Allen. I’m especially grateful to my thesis advisors Troy L. Kickler and Carey M. Roberts who guided me through the research and writing process with extraordinary patience, and to David J. White who provided thoughtful suggestions for the later drafts.

Ohio Sttite University Press $6.50 America, IXuaata, S>emp, anb Napoleon American Trade with Russia and the Baltic, 1783-1812 BY ALFRED W. CROSBY, JR. On the twelfth of June, 1783, a ship of 500 tons sailed into the Russian harbor of Riga and dropped anchor. As the tide pivoted her around her mooring, the Russians on the waterfront could see clearly the banner that she flew — a strange device of white stars on a blue ground and horizontal red and white stripes. Russo-American trade had irrevocably begun. Merchants — Muscovite and Yankee — had met and politely sounded the depths of each other's purses. And they had agreed to do business. In the years that followed, until 1812, the young American nation became economically tied to Russia to a degree that has not, perhaps, been realized to date. The United States desperately needed Russian hemp and linen; the American sailor of the early nineteenth century — who was possibly the most important individual in the American economy — thought twice before he took any craft not equipped with Russian rigging, cables, and sails beyond the harbor mouth. To an appreciable extent, the Amer­ ican economy survived and prospered because it had access to the unending labor and rough skill of the Russian peasant. The United States found, when it emerged as a free (Continued on back flap) America, Hossia, fiemp, and Bapolcon American Trade with Russia and the Baltic, 1783-1812 America, llussia, iicmp, and Bapolton American Trade with Russia and the Baltic, 1783-1811 BY ALFRED W.
