Dear Sir:- Pursuant to our recent conversation I respectfully submit the following offer with regard to my receiving an appointment as City Engineer of Las Vegas. If the City Commissioners will appoint, me City Engineer and Provide me with office space I will agree to do the following things: Be responsible all engineering records and data and see that they are kept in the proper form for City Engineering data. Will furnish engineering data and advice in connection with any matter being considered by the City Commissioners without additional charge where no detailed field work is necessary. Will do all engineering field work for the City at the charge of $10.00 per day for my time. As the City of Las Vegas is now growing and will continue to grow in the future, some steps should be taken to have the engineering data assembled and kept in a workmanlike manner as these early records become more valuable as the City grows, and some engineer should be appointed City Engineer and made responsible for the City records and fieldwork.
