By Council Order 84-134, the Council had previously authorized

of the Federal Building on Harlow Street with the coat to be
spliton a 50-50 basis. The City's share would be $7,000 which
;was_ to be taken from Community Development funds. Sincethat
time the City Engineer has learned that the GSA has hired a
contractor to do this work whereby eliminating the use of the
C.D. funds.
The Committee asked the City Engineer to pursue the possibility
of negotiating the use of Community Development funds or to
reschedule the work on the sidewalk which was scheduled for the
first of July. The Committee did not recommend taking the
$7,000 from the Sidewalk Account.
