2. 7C1 'i['ERVIIEW OF APPIL,IIGANY FOR POSITION or A DMIINIIS;- 1z ASSISTANT David Heironimus was the only applicant interviewed for the position of Adminis- trative Assistant. Originally, two applicants were to be interviewed at this time, but one bad failed to keep in contact, and consequently, Mr. Heironimus was our only applicant. Mr. Heironimus is 23 years of age, married, and a graduate of Ball State College. He has a B.S. in Business Administration Marketing and Merchandising Special, and has had 3 terms of Accounting. His work experience consisted of Assistant Managership cif the J. J. Newberry Company for 13 months, and at present is employe4 in the City Engineer's Office. In answer to Mr. Koczan's question as to when the position would be open, Mr. Sucher replied that originally - before the situations arose regarding the unavailability of federal funds and the constitutionality of redevelopment in Indiana it was anticipated we would need the Administrative Assistant around the lst of the year in order to handle the accounting matters derived from both the Federal and City funds. However, because of the recent developments, we won't actually be needin him for several months; however, we could be using him in the meantime. We have money appropriated for this purpose in the 1959 Budget. After a brief discussion, it was generally agreed that we would review Mr. Heir- onimus's application again at such time when we have actual need for an Admin- istrative Assistant, but there would be no hiring at the present time, due to the fact that we would not be operating with federal funds for a period of several months, and also since Mr. Heironimus is presently employed there is no urgency on his part. He was asked to advise the Commission should he obtain emplovi4ent elsewhere in the meantime. 3. PioH"iraiEss azip®mT ON SiAIDQiPn z S;TwElET Sva®3fzcT Mr. Sucher reported that the Federal people in Chicago are intensively review- ing our Survey & Planning Application. There had been a question raised as to the value of land after clearance. They thought our submitted figure of $7500.00 per acr was too low and asked to have another preliminary appraisal made. This wa done by Mr. Richard Muessel, Jr., local industrial realtor, and his estimate ran $10, 000 per acre for reuse value. (Mr. Muessel quoted $50, 000 for the two acres in commercial use.) Mr. reas and Mr. Helmen both agreed that Mr. Muessel's estimate sounded , taking into consideration the availability of utilities, rail, etc. -- - - -,- _,1
