Jefferson City The following letter was received from the Jefferson City Park
Park Board. Board: September 21, 1965
Marina Project Mayor Christy:
The City Park Board, in session Tuesday, September 21, 1965,
discussed the possibility of constructing a Marina adjacent to the I
Missouri River near Jefferson City. The City Park Board had dis-
cussed this matter at last month' s meeting with two representatives
of the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, Kansas City District.
It was unanimously agreed by the Park Board that the project
should be studied further and a preliminary report should be sub-
mitted to the City by the U. S. Corps of Engineers. It is under-
': stood that this work will be done within budget limitations of the
City Park Board, if it is finally approved for construction.
Requesting the preliminary study by the U. S. Army Corps of
Engineers requires approval of the City Council. This must be done
prior to November 1, 1965, if the project is to be studied during
1966. Approval of final plans and specifications for this project
would be considered much later, probably in late 1966 or early 1967,
We resepctfully suggest that due to the urgency of this
matter, that the City Council submit a letter very soon that will
268
Regular Meeting,_October_ 4,1_965 _
show tentative approval of a Jefferson City Marina, subject to ap-
proval of a preliminary report. This letter should request the Corp '
s'
' of Engineers to proceed with the preliminary study. It should be
jdirected to: Col.Miles Wackendorf, Div. Engineer f
I U. S. Army Corps of Engineers
Federal Office Building ii
Kansas City, Missouri
Thank you for your prompt attention to this urgent matter.
Respectfully,

The following letter was received from Chesebrough - Ponds, Inc. : ' Chesebrough -
September 23 Pond' s, Inc.
Mayor Christy:
Article Four of the pending Lease Agreement between 1
lour Company and Jefferson City requires that the designation of the;s
contractor for the new plant be subject to the prior written ap-
proval of the landlord, in this case, Jefferson City.
We have used the engineer-contractor firm of Walter !
Kidde Constructors, Incorporated during the site selection phase of;
this project; they have done the preliminary engineering and they
are now engaged in doing final design. We have been well-pleased
with their services ans subject to Jefferson City' s approval, would''
i employ them as engineer-contractor for the plant' s construction. It'
would further be our intention to construct the building under an '.
agreement commonly referred to in the construction industry as
# "maxium guaranteed price." This approach to construction is de-
signed to give the Company maximum value for its dollar and yet will
! permit competitive bidding under certain restricted conditions.
In accordance with the Lease Agreement mentioned above, '
may we have Jefferson City' s approval of this contractor.
Very truly yours,
CHCSEBROUGH-POND'S, INC.
