In the preparation of the plans your Committee held several meetings with the Architects, with members of the Social Welfare Board and with representatives of the State Bureau of Social Aid. These sessions were helpful in determining the needs of both the County and the State Social Welfare Boards as to office and space requirements which are to be furnished in the remodeled Welfare Building on a temporary basis and until such time as a permanent solution to the over-all housing needs of the Welfare Department is provided. Final plans and specifications for these alterations were reviewed at a joint meeting of the Ways and Means and Buildings and Grounds Committees on May 2, 1962, at which time representatives of the County and State Social Welfare Boards were present. A resolution was adopted recommending approval of these plans and specifications by the County subject to review by the State Social Welfare Board. Subsequent to the meeting of the joint Committees, the plans were submitted to and approved by the State and a letter is on file in the Board of Auditors giving State approval to the plans. The joint Committees also recommend that bids for the project be taken pursuant to the By-Laws and a report of the bids received with recommendations made back to the Board at a later date. The estimated cost of the project is $43,000 and the work is to be financed with monies from the Indigent Housing Fund. dugh G n,Jr: Leroy Davis Hugh,:bohany Paul—W.
