Lodge #179 Georgetown, Texas 78626 Gentlemen: The City Committee appointed to represent the City Council with your Lodge, met with the full City Council at a regular meeting at 7:30 P.M. on January 8, 1968, and reported to the Council the outcome of the Committee meeting with members of your lodge and rep- resentatives of the Grand I.odge on January 5, 1968; and furthermore recommended that the Council accept the recommendations of the committee. The Council did accept the Committee's recommendations and has authorized me to list those recommendations for your examination. We assume you will find these in keeping with our agreement, and if so we respect- �U I.O.O.F. fully ask that the agreement be forwarded to your Grand Lodge, soliciting their approval of the plan, and asking that they allow both the local lodge and the City to proceed to close this matter at the earliest convenience. Our agreement in substance is as follows: (l) Lodge would deed withoutexception all property owned by the lodge in and around Georgetown, Texas, consisting of the following: a. All cemetery lots in the new addition, north side cemetery. b. All cemetery lots in old addition, Old Cemetery Z-2 c. The Lone Star Gas Company Building d. The lease on the Gas Company Building e. Old house at the cemetery with approximately three acres of land. f. One Parking Lot at entrance to cemetery. g. I.O.O.F. Building and land known as Davis Furniture company building. h. Balance of Perpetual Care Fund (2) The City would pay $11,000.00 for these properties, plus giving a contract to pay 120 monthly payments of 6100.00 each, provided the $11,000.00 would be used by the Lodge to rebuild, refurbish, and refurnish the Woodmen Building into a suitable I.O.O.F. lodge hall at the earliest reasonable time. It was also agreed that sould for any reason the local lodge cease to be chartered the $100.00 per month obligated by the city to the lodge would cease in the event this was at any time less than 120 months. (3) The City would take over the operation of the cemetery and maintain it in the usual general good mariner that it has been maintained by the Lodge. (4) That the City would have the first purchase option of the refurbished Woodmen Building in the event the lodge should cease to operate. (5) The Local Lodge will clear all taxes due on property conveyed to City. I believe this covers the substance of our agreement at the January 5, 1968 meeting, however if we have overlooked any item I feel sure we can adjust it. Thank you very much for your many courtesies and your efforts in attempting to hell► this matter come to a fair conclusion for all parties involved. If we can be of further help, please let me know and I can assure you, the Mayor, and the City Council will be most cooperative. Sincerely, Charles 1).
