In the past, other parking lots surrounding the Service Center facilities have been approved by previous Boards of Supervisors. At its meeting of May 14, 1969, the Planning, Zoning and Building Committee approved the construction plans for the South Parking Lot. Apparently, through oversight, this was not brought to the Board of Supervisors. The approval of the plans, as well as the Contract, should low be ratified by the Board of Supervisors.

Clerk read the following letter: Oakland County Board of Supervisors Attention: Charles B. Edwards, Jr., Chairman Dear Sir: This letter is written to confirm and clarify the recent newspaper articles and radio commentaries with regard to the Oakland County Service Building to be constructed on which E. E. Powell General Contracting Company was the low bidder based on a public offering and submission of sealed bids. I would like to officially confirm the fact that in view of the attitudes of some of my fellow supervisors, and the resultant publicity and implications therefrom, I have, in fact, as of July 31, 1969, completely divested myself of any and all interests in E. E. Powell:General Contracting Company and have resigned all positions with said company for the primary reason that. I cannot allow my brother or his company to suffer due to the extra legal circumstances that have unfortunately been emphasized relative to his bid on the County facility. I will also take this opportunity to finally clear the air regarding any additional imaginary ideas relative to the administration of a contract that may be awarded to E. E. Powell General Contracting Company by unequivocally stating that I will totally remove myself from any administrative activities relative to the performance or such contract and will further remain absent from any deliberations or considerations regarding any future matters that may be brought before the Board regarding such contractual relationships or modifications thereof. 180 Supervisors Minutes Continued, August 7, 196 1 Lake this manner of communicating to and informing the Board of my actions and intentions in view of Lhe fact that I will be unable to attend the Board meeting set for August 7, 1969, but feel it necessary to officially advise you ot the situation as has been publicized and commented on publicly. Very truly yours, Christian F. Powell, Supervisor, District 18 The Chairman stated the letter would be made a part of the minutes. The Chairman requested that Irving J.
