Dear Mr. Frankeberger,<br />
The General Services Administration (<strong>GSA</strong>) has received funding through a Reimbursable Work<br />

The proposed new modular housing wiu provide 20-22 one. two or three bedroom units with<br />
garages. There, are possibly two additional phases ofhousing<br />
construction anticipated in the<br />
future) but these phases are neither scheduled. nor funded at this time <strong>and</strong> thus are not part ofthis;<br />

<strong>GSA</strong> is purchasing property at 55 South Sahuaro Street, <strong>Ajo</strong> (Site) from a private individual on<br />

the Site (attachment 1). There is an existing National Register historic district, <strong>Ajo</strong> Towm;it~<br />
Historic District (attachment 2). located in the town. The Northeastern comer ofthe<br />
Site is<br />
approximately three blocks from the edge ofthe<br />
historic district at its closest point. Given the<br />
