Mr-. Crumlish said•that-he.had three:recommendations if they did the. -survey: there should be -no cut-off,date for,, survey in either -direction; -the' survey should not'limit- building-type-or site and should 'investigate industrial, residential,and commercial.areas;'-and the limits of -the survey should extend to the cities, towns. - Mr. Crumlish said that in.a survey, the work`,�that has to be done.is location,,identification,'and evaluation. The - depth of these depends on how refined the survey is. Mr. Crumlish said that the key.to the survey is evaluation - of the buildings. He.said,that when.you go to this amount of work, the survey -should be:published,for two reasons:- you can sell it to -schools, libraries, historic groups throughout the country; or you can publish it for the people of the County, such -as public -relations,. -public education,. and so,forth.. Mr. Crumlish-said that, if -they got.the-job,.since they have a small office, they would like to work with surveyors' or architectural students.
