Letter from Mayor Whites and City of Lucedale

George County Board of Supervisors
Lucedale, MS 39452

Honorable Board of Supervisors:

The City of Lucedale would like your consideration for a donation of 68 foot of the property located at the comer ofMain and Mill Street. This property is now used as a parking lot for the Department of Education. Our request is 68 foot on the front of this lot, which will only take up five (5) parking spaces.
In exchange for the 68foot (or five (5) parking spaces), the City is willing to lease and pave the parking lot directly behind the Department of Education and the adjoining parking lot (which belongs to the City). This will give a total of 50 parking spaces on the rear of the Superintendent's office, which should accommodate both the Department of Education and the adjoining businesses.
Your approval of this donation to the City will entitle the City to receive grant funds to construct a downtown kiosk and bathrooms at this location. The City's grant application will also include the renovation of the existing restrooms and pavilion in the City Park.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.

Sincerely,

CITY OF LUCEDALE

Dayton E. Whites, M.D .
Mayor
