Smith, Mayor 715 Albany Caldwell, Idaho I d Dear Jason - We have now completed our services for ;you and enclose a copy of the legal opinion of Chapman and Cuticr, bond attorneys of C?u cago, approving the legality of the bonds. Our agreement with you provided tP,at we wouldcbduct from the amount of our fee an amount suff!ntert to pay the bond attorneys. We suggest, therefore, that you authorize us to make payment to the bond attorneys for the amount '- due them, or we can bill you for the amount of our fee less the amount due the bond attorneys, and you can pay them direct. Yo may be interested to know that Jerome sold some water revenue bonds the III I{ other day at a 4.70,' interest cost, as aga 3.22% interest costs on your _ bonds, a difference of virtually 1.COw per annum, or $15.00 per thousand per year. On your bonds, that amounts to $11,250 difference in interest each year during the life of the bonds. In addition, we understand that Jerome paid its fiscal agents 3.50 %, whereas our fee with Caldwell, which includes pav' -ng the legal opinion and for printing the bonds was less than .6 %. It has been a pleasure for me to work with you and members of the Council and with Bill on this financing, and we hope that your are satisfied com- pletely with the services rendered. We tried to do a good job of merchan- dizing your bonds, and I think the rate of interest that you received in a market such as we had when your bands were sold is a good indication of d the type of merchandising teat we 'did for you.i A per our agreement vr_th the City, we should be happy to receive its check in the amount of $4,450, and we would like you to authorize us to pay Chap- man and Cutler for their fee and services out of this amount. Cordially, /s/ J. A. Burrows Preaident. 'loved by Eldredge, seconded by Bettis a warrant in the amount of X4,450.00 be issued to Edward L. Burton & Co, for fees and for the payment of the bond attorneys. Upon Roll Call it appeared the motion was unanimously carried. i A li The following letter was read and ordered spread on the Minutes: September 25, 1 956 i Honorable Jason Smith City Hall Caldwell, Idaho Dear Mr. Smith, 'I I am writing to you in reference to the paving and curbing of the long stretch of street bordering our farmland. According to the information I have, the protest was overruled and the improvements are I ii to take place. I vas wondering why the council took the stand that they could not pave along the farm ground without putting in curbing also, and then I noticed that far inside the city limits between Ray Ave, and Oregon Ave, they did pave without curbing :-ither side of the road. This doeFn't seem quite consistent to me. I am afraid we will not be able tc cope with the added expense laced xp p upon us. The expense item is a great item and the benefit to the school will be absolutely nil be- cause should we put homes along the street, the curbing --t uld be of no value as it would all have to be br ken up assn and redone for driveways and sidewalks. I am sure you can see our problem. Will the council permit us to do our own curbing along that street, that will save us some money if we do our own work, for we have capable men in our employment. 1 mP oym I would appreciate an answer to the above I I question, i Sincerely, 1 /s/ B. M. Kurtz � I The Mayor instructed the Clerk to write Mr. Kurtz and advise him the City would ve II gi permission for the Gem State Academy to construct their own urb and gutter, provided, the levels are run by the city „Engineer.
