Attached to this must be a commitment by the commonwealth that it is reserving funds for use in the project. The federal government is already reserving $2,150,000 for the Allentown work. Members of the ARA will, among others things, take action today to authorize a second appraisal of property within the project area. The property has been appraised once by a team made up of Daniel Jarrett, William Jackson, Russell Geiger and John Kessler. Lee Kahlcr will be added to this team for the second appraisal.

The reason for two appraisals is to make certain that property owners in the area are offered a fair price by the authority. The authority, before it can move on new construction, must buy all property in the section, and make certain all persons residing in the project area are relocated. The Rev. Phares O.
