Dear Sir:
Pursuant to the terms of the Department of Commerce Appropriation Act, 1942
(Public Law 135, 77th Congress, Title II), the Administrator of Civil Aeronautics,
with the approval of a Board composed of the Secretaries of War, Navy, and CommerCe, has
designated as necessary for national defense a project for development of the Sanford
Municipal Airport, Docket No S-904-8-35, and has tentatively allocated for this project
the sum of $215,000. As now proposed, this project contemplates the following development:
($67,000 WPA non-labor allocation ):
Non-labor allocation to clear,
NE-BW and NW-BE landing strips
area.
($148,OO0 Contract):
grade, drain, muck and sod
500' x 4200' and fence field
Pave NE-aW and NW-SE runways 100' x 4000'; pave taxiways
and install basic lighting.
As a condition precedent to release and oneration of this project, the
Administrator requires that it be sponsored by a public agency having title in fee simple,
free of all liens and encumbrances, to the landing area of the airport and the lands to
be improved under the project, and that such soonsor enter into an agreement with the
United States in the manner and form of the resolution form enclosed herewith.
It is the purpose of this letter to inquire whether the City of Sanford desires and
miNUTES
CitY COMMISSION, SANFORD, FLORIDA, A ...... ~..~.~ .t. ~: .... ~ M 1941
resolution would not obligate either the City of Sanford or the United States
since, by its terms, such agreement would become binding only upon the award of
a construction contract for any portion of the ~roJect or the inau~}ration of
any portion of the nroJect under force account.
It will be noted that a form of certificate is annexed to the resolution
form, to be executed by the chief legal officer of the City of Sanford and
attached to the executed resolution as Exhibit A. This certificate must be
executed and delivered by your governing body before the. adoption of the resolution.
If the City of Sanford. has no legal officer, an attorney should be designated
by aoproprSa~e action of your gowernin~ body to perform the services mentioned in
Section 2 (f) of the resolution form, In such event, the attorney's certificate should
set forth the source of his authority.
It will also be noted that this certificate of the chief legal officer is to have
aa an attachment a sketch showing the lands to be improved under the nroJect and those
comprising the nresent landing area of the Airport. which sketch is also to be attached
to the executed-resolution as hart of Exhibit A. This sketch should be to scale and
should show sufficient section lines, property lines, monuments , natural features,
existing airport facilities, proposed improvements, and other information to permit
identificatl6n of the exact l~nds in question. It is suggested that this off'ce
be consulted aa to the sufficiency of this sketch orior to adootion of the resolution.
The sketch should be of letterhead size, approximately 8" x 10~".
If for any reason it is impOssible to adopt a resolution exactly in the form
of that enclosed, this office should be consulted in an effort to reach an agreement
to a revision or modification which would be satisfactory to the Administrator.
Enols.
