All board members I were present. Mr. J. D. Daniel, Chairman, called the meeting to order. Minutes of the previous meeting, held December 9, were read. After reading same the minutes were approved as read. Supplementing the previous minutes, the following report was rendered on the build­ ing, bids, etc.: The following four companies sent in bids: Basic Construction Company, Newport News, Virginia Brice Building Company, Birmingham, Alabama J. A. Jones Construction Co., Inc., Charlotte, N. C. McDonough Construction Company, Atlanta, Georgia The Building Committee and architects met on December 20 to receive and open the bids. The basic bids, including alternates, ranged from a high of $4,111 ,000 to a low of $3,809,000. The high was submitted by J. A. Jones Construction Company, and the low by Brice Building Company. To these bids the cost of the walls, grading, architects fees are to be added - an approximate additional cost of $1 ,096,000. None of the bids included the alternate of leaving out insulation. Archives At this meeting no decision was reached except that letter was written to each company asking for additional information, such as the cost of insulation and cer­ I tain type of floor. Answers to this were requested by December 27. It was con­ cluded to have a meeting on that date. A meeting was held on the above date receiving the replies. The cost of insula­ tion ranged from a low of $350,100 to a high of $465,000. On the revised figures Brice Building Company was the lowest bidder: next low­ est was McDonough Construction Company. Leaving out refrigeration and insulation, but including an estimate for grading, architects fees and tilt-up walls, the cost from Brice is $4,~19,515, and from McDonough Construction Company $4,158,980. The cost of insulation/refrigeration from Brice is $871,000 and from McDonough is $836,000. Family Management of A/G feels that it can contract for refrigeration/insulation direct, which is not according to the architect's specification, but wi 11 serve the same purpose and will be as efficient, at a saving of between $200/250,000. This was discussed at length at this meeting. The following was concluded at t ·s meeting: ~ To present the plans received by A/G to the architect for his .review and receive his opinion on it; to advise Mr. Brice to come to a meeting to be held January 7 to discuss the possibilities of obtaining various reductions from his bid price. A meeting was held on January 7, at which time the architect, Building Committee, Mr. Brice and Mr. Aaron, of Brice Building Company, were present. Mr. Brice stated that there were no reductions he could make on his part of the work as the figures I Cubahe had included in the bid were such that no further reduction was possible; however, he did state that he would discuss this with his sub-contractors, such as for heating, plumbing and electrical. Various matters were discussed with the MINUTES, JANUARY 20,1969 Page 2 hopes of reducing the price. It was concluded that Brice shall receive a letter of intent that he will be awarded the contract, subject to obtaining a commitment for financing. It was concluded that another meeting be held January 14, at which time I Mr. Brice would advise the results from conferences he would hold with his sub­ contractors. r'i At this meeting the fol lowing were present: 0 "° /}' --- Bob Burton and the mechanical and electrical engineer from the architectural firm, Representatives from Brice Building Company, The electrical sub-contractor and The plumbing sub-contractor, which covers plumbing, air conditioning, heating and ventilation. The Building Committee was not present at this meeting. The plumbing sub-contractor offered various substitutions, mostly in the type of material: some were accepted and others were not. The net saving due to these substitutions amounts to $14,280. The electrical sub-contractor offered various minor changes creating a saving of $8,900, or a total saving of $23,180. The proposal from Lewis Refrigeration Company which was sent to Ballinger was dis­ cussed. The mechanical engineer pointed out t he differencesArchives of Lewis' proposal, which is based on an ammonia system, as opposed to Freon 502 system, as specified by the architect. Apparently, these are two completely different systems which will I require different types of equipment, and the method of operation is also different. The mechanical engineer is of the opinion that it will do the work, but that it is not as good a system as Freon. There was some discussion of Ballinger preparing specifications for an ammonia system. The architect did not have time to review the refrigeration proposal received from Hussmann-Frick, nor did they have time to review the alternate proposal on the insulation. These two subjects were discussed at length without reaahing any de­ cision. Additional matters were discussed with the objective of creating savings, but it seemed there were not any areas where savings could be created. There are possi­ bilities that if all ofFamily the refrigeration equipment is placed in one location, instead of as specified by the architect, and by eliminating the mezzanines, some savings might be created in the electrical and plumbing work - if the changes are made. The contractor was given a letter of intent, as per decision of the Building Com­ mittee a.fttt meeting held January 7. ~ After rendering the report on the building, a lengthy discussion was held pertain­ ing to Management suggesting that serious consideration shall be given to not accepting the refrigeration and insulation system as proposed by the architect, and that A/G shall contract separately for this and let the general contractor coordi­ I Cubanate and supervise same. The following report was rendered as to the tentative proposal of financing the MINUTES, JANUARY 20, 1969 Page 3 I building. Equitable Assurance Society will recommend a loan of $3 ~ Million at 8% interest: hence, assuming the cost of the building is $5 Million, will obtain first mort­ gage of $3~ Million &borrow $1~ Million from Fulton National Bank. A/G has al­ ready financed for grading, tilt-up walls and architectural fee an amount of $350,000. This is a total of $5,100,000. Conference is to be held with Fulton National Bank pertaining to the above. If the present building is sold, it is agreed that the proceeds from the sale to A/G will be approximately $1 Million, of which part or all of it can be applied to repay Fulton National Bank. The intention is to pay out the Fulton National Bank for a period of three years. This does not include any equipment.

  • Making the “International City”: Work, Law, and Culture In
    MAKING THE “INTERNATIONAL CITY”: WORK, LAW, AND CULTURE IN IMMIGRANT ATLANTA, 1970-2006 by TORE C. OLSSON (Under the Direction of James C. Cobb) ABSTRACT In the wake of the Civil Rights movement, image-conscious Atlanta boosters unveiled a new slogan for their metropolis: the city that had previously been “too busy to hate” was now the “international city,” or “the world’s next great city.” Traditional historical accounts acknowledge the slow transition of Atlanta from Southern city to global landmark by viewing internationalization from the top-down, emphasizing the importance of the Hartsfield-Jackson international airport, growing foreign investment, and the later Olympic Games. But this dominant narrative leaves out an important factor that truly made Atlanta a cosmopolitan city: the steady influx of thousands of working- class immigrants and refugees. In portraying immigrant life within Atlanta since 1970, this thesis presents three vignette-style examinations of work, law, and culture in Atlanta’s immigrant communities, and demonstrates that making the “international city” was a slow and arduous process that sometimes faced resistance from native Atlantans.
