Request for Attendance at Meeting

Dear

Enclosed is a copy of a staff report being transmitted
to the City Planning Commission relative to the down
zoning of the Los Amigas property. The Commission will
be considering the suggestions made at its regular meeting
of July 2, 1986 after 2:15 P.M., in Room 561-A, City Hall.

I think it is extremely important that we attend. Since
this is one of several matters to be acted upon, it is
difficult to know precisely when they will act upon our
matter.

Please let me know if you will be able to go with me. It
might not be a bad idea to have Phil Watson present also.
What do you think?

Request for Advice

Dear

Frankly, I need your advice on a matter of great concern
to the employees at the local manufacturing facility. It
seems the constant rumors of a corporate takeover are
filtering down to the general work force, and the loyalty
may soon falter. I have heard of some employees submitting
their applications to our competitors. This could create
problems if not dealt with now.

I feel obliged to make some sort of official statement to
the employees and hope for your guidance as to the content
thereof.

I would be most grateful for your thoughts and advice on
this most sensitive matter.
