H. Kennedy, City Manager City Hall 400 Stewart Avenue Las Vegas, Nevada Dear Mr. Kennedy: In accordance with previous, conversations, request is made herewith on behalf of the Las Vegas Day Nursery School, a non-profit Nevada corporation, for 2½ acres, more or less, approximating ½ of the following described property: A certain tract or parcel of land lying and being within the City of Las Vegas, County of Clark, State of Nevada, and being a portion of the SE¼ of the NW¼ of Section 26 T20S, R61E, MDB&M - generally described as follows to-wit: The N 411.56 ft. of the S 761.27 ft. of the E 574.81 ft. of the SE¼ of the NW-y¼ of Section 26 - 20 61 MDB&M. Less those portions reserved or dedicated for Public Right of Way and Utilities purpose. Containing 5.15 acres, more or less. I sincerely regret any inconvenience or misunderstanding from failure to receive our request before this. It had been my impression that such a request had been sent. Our organization has been established for the purpose of making available child care facilities for pre-school and school age children of working parents. When this land is made available to us on a long term lease or purchase arrangement, we plan to undertake a campaign to raise funds through a joint effort of the interested parents and various community service organizations to construct facilities suitable for this program. We have not, as yet, had time to formulate any detailed campaign, as we had hoped, until recently, that some single organization would undertake this construction for us. However, there is no question as to the need for such a facility in this city, and we feel certain that it will receive sufficient public support as to enable us to start construction within some reasonable period of time. We look forward to your early response. Yours very truly 1-7-59 /s/ Edward Young
