CITATION TO MR. LLOYD S. TAYLOR
The Chairman said he would like to re -echo President Helmen's
comments to Mr. Taylor in last Friday's Commission meeting con-
cerning his efforts and what he has accomplished in the past
year. Mr. Taylor is respected by the community, the downtown
people and the contractors. There is a feeling of confidence

off the ground."

could not have been done without the full support of the Trustees
and Commission. The magnitude of the development being planned
for our downtown is beyond our greatest expectations. Mr. Taylor
said he has enjoyed the eight years he has served in the City
administration.
