f:
It is recommended that the attached Resolution
be approved by the City Commission in order to
replace lost bonds in the amount of Ten Thousand
Dollars ($10,000).
The attached Resolution is self-explanatory. Bonds issued in bearer
form to A. M. Leach which have presumably been lost need replacement.
The City has received an indemnitification bond and affidavit pertain-
ing to the lost bonds and their request for the issuance of duplicate
bonds. The City's legal counsel, Brown, Wood, Ivey, Mitchell and
Petty, has examined such affidavit and indemnity bond and is satisfied
that are legally sufficient.
Chemical Bank has indicated that they will issue the missing bonds upon
receipt of a letter from the Commission authorizing them to do so.
Any costs relating to this item will be reimbursed to the City by the
owner of the Bonds.

Re: Lost Bonds
Dear Mr. Garcia:
I enclose eight copies of a resolution to provide for
the issuance and delivery of duplicate bonds in place of
the bonds issued in bearer form to A.M. Leach which have
presumably been lost. I also enclose the indemnification
bond and affidavit pertaining to the lost bonds and the
request for the issuance of duplicate bonds.
I think that the resolution is self-explanatory. It
is intended to set forth findings and determinations
respecting, the relevant- ('acts and to describe the facts
respecting the lost bonds and to authorise the issuance of
the duplicate bonds.
8a-664
I have examined the enclosed affidavit and indemnity
bond, and am satisfied that they are legally sufficient.
Connie Lemme of Chemical Bank, in tier letter of
■
June 265 indicates that Chemical will issue the missing
bonds upon receipt of a letter from the Commission authorizing
them to do so. I have provided In the Resolution that
Chemical Bank will print the bonds for execution by the
City Cleric and Mayor (the latter by facsimile signature).
It is not clear whether the cost of printing of the
Duplicate Bonds is to paid directly or indirectly by the
City, by Chemical Bank, or by others; in any case, the
City should be reimbursed for its expenses in causing the
bonds to be issued, and should be assured of such reimbursement
before incurring any further expenses. I have included, in
section 5 of the Resolution, a provision to the effect that
the costs incurred by the City in issuing the duplicate
bonds will be reimbursed by the owner of the Bonds. We
enclose an invoice for our fees.
Please send me one certified copy of the enclosed
resolution when it has been adopted by the Commission.
If you should have any questions, please get in
touch with me.
Sincerely,
Joseph Guandolo
