Whereas, One of the properties most vital in carrying out the contemplated improvements, as provided for in the Master Plan, is the property known as the Papin Farm on Ham's Island, com- prising Mineral hots No. 301, No. 301A and No. 302 in the City of Dubuque, Iowa. Whereas, The Administrator or Trus- tee of the Papin estate has been au- thorized by a Court Decree to sell this property to the City of Dubuque for the sum of Five-thousand ($5,000.00) Cash, and it is the unanimous opinion of the members of the Doclc Commis- sion that the City should avail itself of the opportunity to acquire this property at this very reasonable figure; There- fore, Be It Resolved, By the Board of Doclc Commissioners that we petition your honorable body to make the necessary funds available and proceed forthwith to complete the details of purchase and secure proper deed from the duly au- thorized party or parties without delay.
