RE: De Mesa House Restoration (DOS 3200)

Dear Mr. Hittenger:

We respectfully request authority to purchase the mechanical
and electrical systems for the referenced project on a one bid
basis after a second call for bids.

It is our opinion and that of the architect that the amounts
bid are reasonable and that the lack of bids was due primarily to
the specialized nature of the project.

Sincerely,

/ /c

William R. Adams
Director
