The Chairman asked thaL we stand with bowea heads in silent prayer for the early recovery of
Presi.dent Eiserihower who sufPered a heart attaclc Saturday, September 24.
The meetinb was then opened with prayer by the Reverend U. S. Johnson, Pastor of St. Lukes
Metizbdist Church, colored.
? ?
At the suggestion of tize Chairman, it was then directed that a letter of sympathy be written?
to our sick President with a prayer for his speedy recovery and restoration to health. Copies of the minutes of the nieeting oP the Board of September 19, 1955, having previously`?,:k?A
been mailed to each member of the Board, the same were upon motion of Air.. Trask, seconded by?,??.•,?r,c,b.,
Mr. Mayhan, approved. . .
The question as to the best procedure to follow to secure eontracts for the sand dune rehabil-Q??-
. itation work in the unincorporated beaeh areas, whether by advertising for bids or by nego-
tiated contracts with the approximate eleven contractors interviewed by Mr. H. M. Loughlin,
Ergineer to be in charge oP the._work, was brouzht up for discussion. Mr. Br.oadhurst favor- c&{? h,.
ed advertising for bids as the best poliey. Mr. Trask felt best results could be achieved
Uy giving all the contracto'rs an opportunity to share alike in the work, thru negotiated con-
tracts, under the supervision of the Engineer who will make careful oUservatioils as to sat-
isfactory performance of the'contraet, and if it should appear that any contractor is shirk-
ing his work his contraet is to tie terminated and his share of tlze work divided among the
other coiitractors. '
i . `?...
The Chairman then called attention to the different types of maehine work in the beach areds:
Dragline and Bulldozer operation is iieceesary in the Wilcnington Beach-Fort Fisher areas on
account of Peat or Hard-pan soil, and Bulldozer operation at Freeman Beach, will appai^ently.?,:01,?-Z,-
suffice.
X
A motion was then offered by Mr. Trask, seconded by Mr. Afayhan, and carried, that the rehabil'-
- itation sand dune work for the unineorporated beach areas be divided equally among all the
contractors who wish to participate in the work, on individual negotiated contracts. The
contr•actors are to furnish bond and file iaith the County Auditor not later than the dead-line`^

, The number of pieces of eq+a.ipment £o be furnislzed by the Contractors to do tlie work iaas left?"'`?u?
to the discretion of Pfr: H. M. Lough`lin, Engineer, who will supervise the work.
The eight (8) contractors present met and selected S. E. Cooper and Jack Scruggs,' operatin
as Continential Construction Company as the General Contractor who will be responsible for
the work.
Messrs. Richard F. Meier and Tohn H. r'?rrell appeared to ask for an apliropriation o*f $1,500.
out of the advertisiilg ftind for S?NCBA which was received for consideration whenlthe appor-
