Robert L. Dugan Executive Director, HousingAuthority of the City of Fayettevile 1 North School Avenue Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701 Dear Mr. Dugan: IN REPLY REFER TOI 6.2S Thank you for your letter of September 18. 1974, concerning the Old Post Office Building. This local action on the part of the City is interesting and will be given every consideration. Assuming that the Fayetteville Housing Authority desires to dispose of the property by other than the demolition, etc., called for in your present plan. I have asked my staff to dili- gently research the question as to the "fair market value" now that the structure has received historical registration. While re have not completed our research. we can suggest at this time that steps be taken by your Agency to ascertain an estimate of costs to restore and maintain the property as a historical structure. In addition to this, you could relate to us ay ideas en the economic effect of the his- torical designation. It appears that it is appropriate for you to have appraisals made of the structure taking into consideration the obligation of any purchaser to restore and maintain the historical significance and any econanic effect (enhancement or reduction) with professional documentation. We cannot advise you, at this time, whether the offer of $1.00 is either acceptable or unacceptable to this office until more information is submitted by your Agency. As you know the regulations for submitting a change in your plan and the reasons, documentation, etc., are contain- ed in HUD handbooks with the responsibility for such submission resting with the local housing authority. cc: Honorable John Paul Hammerschmidt Honorable Russell T.
