Mr. Mark Breakstone, representing the office of Mr. Eugene
Jacobs, Special Counsel to the Redevelopment Agency, explained that
the reason for the delay of the contract with John S. Griffith &
Co. for the development of a downtown regional shopping center, is

contract. This contract should be ready for presentation to the

The Redevelopment Agency members requested that Mr. Jacobs'
office make an effort to come back to the Agency with a copy of the
contract at the January, 1975 meeting.
