"'he City Council action was not to extend the present lease beyond the termination date which is December l, 1980. The City Council' s action was based uoon housing requirernents that are presently prevalent and the need to expand our present facilities into that building. As I discussed with you, we would be receptive t� discussing with vou other arrangements that riight be available to accommodate the present post office operation, if you are seeking alternatives. I was surprised to hear that the postal de�artment does not involve itself in purchasing leased property, as the Crystal Bay Post Off_ice, when that property is entered on the rlarket. It would apPear to me that if an operation is solvent, it would be wise to purchase that �roperty if other propertU is not available in the area. I , and P�ayor Van Pdest, would be available at your convenience to discuss this matter further.
