BOX 6426 MOBILE, ALABAMA In a letter dated June 26, 1964, addressed to the Public Building Authority of the City of Fairhope, our firm extended our low bid price of Two Hundred Eighty Four Thousand Six Hundred Thirty Dollars ($284,630.00) on the proposed Municipal Auditorium until August 10, 1964. In subsequent conversations with several of the Fairhope City Councilmen we are led to believe that the project, per se, is not a dead issue and all parties concerned are hopeful of eventually constructing an auditorium, though perhaps under changed conditions. Our firm hereby extends our bid price as stated above for an indefinate period of time, subject, of course, to soil and topographical differences, and any changes in plans and specifications and significant changes in labor and material costs. We are obviously content with that we may ultimately sign a Fairhope to construct its new Very truly yours, our bid price and are hopeful contract with the City of municipal auditorium.
