ALL OUR EFFORTS TO GET AN APPRAISAL FROM THE STATE HAVE BEEN <br />FRUITLESS. THEY HAVE NEVER TOLD US WHAT THEIR APPRAISAL WAS, I DO NOT KNOW <br />IF YOU OR MR. JENNINGS WERE TOLD OR IF IT WAS EVER MADE PUBLIC. <br />MR. .JENNINGS STATED THAT IT WAS HIS UNDERSTANDING THAT THE STATE HAS <br />AN APPRAISER WORKING ON IT, BUT WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY FIGURES. <br />MR.

FELT <br />IT WAS INCOMPLETE, BUT THEY DID HAVE ONE AND IN RESPONSE TO FURTHER QUESTIONS <br />THEY STATED THAT IT MIGHT BE THE SUBJECT OF FUTURE LITIGATION AND THEY <br />WOULD REFRAIN FROM RELEASING IT FROM THEIR OFFICE. <br />CHAIRMAN $IEBERT STATED THAT TO HIS KNOWLEDGE THERE HAS BEEN NO <br />OFFICIAL COMPLETED APPRAISAL DONE BY THE D.O.T. <br />MR.

THE <br />INTERSECTION DESIGN FOR INDIAN RIVER BLVD, WAS CHANGED AND WIDENED AND <br />WE COULD NOT ARRIVE AT ALTERNATE N0. 3, THE LOWEST COST. IT WAS HIS <br />UNDERSTANDING THAT WE TOOK THAT LOWEST FIGURE HOPING THAT WE COULD ARRIVE <br />AT IT, BUT IF NOT, IT WOULD BE A NEW BALL GAME. <br />CHAIRMAN SIEB ERT STATED THAT WAS NOT HIS UNDERSTANDING. <br />PAT LYONS STATED THAT THE $390,000 WAS NOT SOLID IT WAS PREFERRED <br />AND HOPED FOR. <br />CHAIRMAN $IEBERT STATED THAT THE BOARD THOUGHT IT WOULD COME IN <br />LOWER THAN $390,000. THE D.O.T. FIGURES LEAD US TO BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD COME <br />IN LOWER. IT SEEMS THE CITY'S FIGURES WERE MORE CORRECT. <br />.. -3- <br />OCT 51976 <br />UAA <br />suul ICU ?A 4' <br />
