MARION, AR (,H T CT MEMBER OF AMERICAN INSTITUTE A CHI ECTS August 11 1465 Palm Beach Gardens City Council 1001 Park Avenue Lake Park, Florida Attention: Mr. Michael Jackson Dear Mr, Jackson: In accordance with request of the Council, I as writing this letter to confirm the intent and results of the meeting held on August 18, 1965, which envolved several of the council members and myself. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the development of a building program study regarding the present and immediate future space needs of a proposed Municipal Building and related facilities and the possible site location of such facilities It was my recommendation that the council should commission a professional person to prepare a basic and concise report of building space needs prior to embarking on a program for the actual design and construction of a municipal building. Such a report would set forth requirements for present space needs and an estimate of needs for possible growth during the next five years. I also suggested that such a professional person could assist in the selection of a site for Municipal Facilities. The sites available for such facilities would have to be made known to the professional who in turn could make his recommendations regarding the best location. Upon inquiry from the Council, the writer stipilated that he would perform a basic study and write a brief report regarding building space needs, and assist in the selection of a site for proposed Municipal Facilities for a fixed fee of one thousand dollars ( 1,000.00 ). This study and service will not include any architectural drawings. floor plans, 238 ROYAL PALM WAY, PALM BEACH, FLORIDA TEMPLE 2 -1800 JOHN B.

Should you desire our firm to perform such a study it would be approximately two months before we could begin and I anticipate approximately the same amount of time to complete the work required.
