Report on ~'rench Avenue, by Volie Williams, Jr., - It was reported that out of approximately 100 ~ieces of right of wsy deeds 80 had been received, leaving about 20 to be obtained. The delay in filing condemnation proceedings wes caused by the failure of the ~tete Road De- psrtment to furnish the ~escriotion as they required. All papers covering these condemnation proceedings for the right of way have been prepared, and as soon as the descriptions have been received they can be filed very quickly. Mr. Williams reporte5 that he h~s been consistently following up this matter with the State Road Department, as indicated by coples of correspondence.

Mr. Angas advised that his firm would absorb Dr. Wolman's fee provided the projects are constructed as proposed, or, if the total cost exceed one million dollars, the City to cay a pro rata of such fee.

Annas and Associates under the terms of their engineering con- tract with the City. Mr. Angas then agreed to pay for such services but stated that they would probably need to call on thc City for an advance on their fees in order to pay the refiner fee of $1,000.00 to Dr. Wolman, which the Commission agreed to approve.
