Hi Dave and Rich,
I wanted to follow up on the opinion letters from Rich Kirkland for the Holden-Roberts and Gledhill
farms. Was the contract executed? Have we gotten the letters and updated appraisals? Our ADFP deadline

Let me know. Thanks,

I talked with Orange County on Tuesday about this. Either Dave or Rich will work with you on a contract to
update the existing appraisal acreages as well as writing opinion letters. We are really hopeful that the
appraised amounts have not changed since these projects already have approved final funding totals!

I did not know you were returning to Eno,hopefully it's all upward moves.
As for updating, I can do that at an hourly rate of$250 not to exceed 5 hours each. I may only need an hour
or two each assuming I don't need to re inpect. I can give a flat fee if you need it. I just need to look at the
tinning and MLS.
Time frame is 3,weeks

Hi Rich,
I hope you are doing well. I don't know if I told you this, but I went back to the Eno River Association in
May. During my transition back, I am assisting Orange County complete some land acquisition
projects. Two of those projects you appraised for us: Holden-Roberts Farm(Anderson) and Cedar Grove
Windy Hill Farm (Gledhill). These projects have partial funding from the NC Agricultural Development and
Farmland Preservation Trust Fund(ADFP). ADFP requires that the appraiser update the existing appraisals
to represent the acreage from the survey and write an opinion letter of current value. We did this for the
Pope Farm back in September 2016.
Could you send us a quote for the cost of this service and the timeframe for completion once
contracted? Attached are the preliminary plats and existing appraisals. Please not that the farmstead area in

the northern portion of the Gledhill farm may change in shape, but should stay a similar size. For both
projects, no subdivisions are allowed and no future residential structures except for those allowed under state
laws pertaining to agriculture such as allowing farmhand housing.
Thank you!
