of the street. The street is completely
graded and is noW ready for the construction
of the road.

Dear Sir:-
We have been informed that your
Council has failed to approve the road which we
put in at our property at Nassau Park, South Ooean
Boulevard.
l
This rock had previously been approved
by your Mr. Baker and your Mr. Foote, ~nd it also ap-
parently had the approval of the County and the United "
States government, it being the.'same rock which is being
used by the County and the government in the construC~
tion of the road west of Delray, and i~ is our under-
standing from good authority that the':!:,ook is equal,
if not superior, to Maule OjuS rock.' We might
state, also, that the road is 7" rolled to 5" instead
of 6" rolled to 4",which was what your'Board aCyepted
and passed a Resolution to accept at a previous 'meeting.
We'had a road expert cheok over the rock before aocept-
ing it from Mr. Barnes, the oontractor, and ye~ after
all this, we are inf'ormed that your honorable body has
rejected this road.
We believe that we should have. been in
formed or requested to appear bef'ore the Board before
the rejeotion of this road was voted upon and we feel
that we, as well as our contraotor, have been treated
very unfairly. We have at all times sinoe the be-
ginning of the development of the properties in Delray
tried to live up to all regulations and building oodes.
0.1' tre Town of ])elray and would like an expression f'roln
you in regards to this matter.
Yours very truly,
