Mary's Road Corridor from US 70 to the Durham <br /> County Boundary under the terms discussed in your letter: I will update the 1992 -93 <br /> survey as necessary, prepare survey files according to NCSHPO standards for <br /> properties that now fall within the 50-year age guideline or that may have been excluded <br /> from the earlier survey, evaluate the potential for a National Register District within the <br /> corridor, prepare a study list application for the district if appropriate, and attend the <br /> three meetings you specify . <br /> I understand the project' s cost is not .to exceed $3,500 . I believe I can do the above- <br /> specified work for $3, 400 including photography expenses . If I am the successful <br /> bidder, I will require $ 750 after signing the contract to do the work and $2, 650 on <br /> completion of the project to your satisfaction. I can begin work on April 15, 1999, and <br /> will complete all work by or before June 30, 1999 . <br /> I know the St . Marys Road Corridor well. Having been raised in Durham County, I have <br /> traveled it frequently over many years going to and from Hillsborough. Within the last <br /> six years, I have also prepared National Register Nominations . for Maple Hill or the <br /> Jacob Jackson Farm, the Holden-Roberts Farm now called Rolling Acres (nomination <br /> withdrawn by owner), and a study list application for Sunnyside, Captain John Berry' s <br /> summer home, all properties located along the St. Marys Road Corridor in Orange <br /> County . In addition I am familiar with the history of milling along the Eno River in the <br /> area. I am submitting my resume and a copy . of Section 8 of the Holden-Roberts Farm <br /> National Register Nomination as a sample of my work for your consideration. I look <br /> forward to the possibility of working with you on this project . If you have any <br /> questions, please call me at the above number. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Betsy Gohdes-Baten <br />
