January 29, 1973. I
We, the undersigned, respectfully request that the City of j
Jefferson's Contractors License Ordinance be enforced fairly and
equally in regard to individuals, companies, general contractors, f�
sub contractors or anyone doing construction work in the city.
We firmly believe that this ordinance should be strictly enforced,

As a method of enforcement of the above Ordinance, we recommend Contractors
that a contractor or owner be required to furnish proof that he License.
holds a City Contractors License before he could be issued a

contractors who annually purchase a City Contractors License, as j
