Mr. L. A. Whitei Las Vegas - January 17, 1949 W 23-1-24 W 23-1-55 Xour letter January 15, file S© 9-2-4, re­garding deposits of estimated costs covering pipe line extensions wader Work Order 612 540 and Work Order : Our Mora 183* #$-939* in the amount of |154*25* covered refund of difference between actual and estimated costs under C/A 10472 and should have been made payable to Masteroraft Homes, Ine* We submit corrected Mora I83. With reference to the refund of $147,72 under C/A 10475* covering conetruetion of water main under W0-612 S the check was issued by Reuben Speck tor; how­ever, the contract covering the refund Is drawn with Richard Toleno and we therefore made the refund pay­able to him In accordance with the terms of the con­tract, As a matter of information, Specktor is financing the houses being constructed by Toleno and the contract was drawn with Toleno at their request. With reference to the last paragraph of your letter, I do not believe the value of the 8-inch pipe authorised under wo-540 should be dropped from the annual carryover* While it is true that the 8-inch line was constructed under another Work Order {W0-608) we expect to construct additional 6—inch line in Charleston Square Tract #2, possibly in February, and due to Increased material costs we will need all or most of the money authorised, I therefore recommend that the unexpended balance of $11,431*14 In WO-540 be included in the annual carryover.
