Said property is ^depicted on a plat marked Exhibit "A" and attached hereto. It is understood that the City has not yet declared this property avail- able for sale. When the subject property is made available for sale, it is the opinion of the undersigned that the highest and best use for the pro- perty will be for a service station. As a result of the progress being made on the widening of 1-5 and the fact that Mrs. Greenwood has terminated her life estate on a portion of the pro-*" perty, it would seem that now would be an excellent timet to make this proper- ty available for sale. If the City concurs with the above, the Humble Oil 8t Btefining Company is prepared to submit a bid offer to purchase subject property for a sum in excess of $200,000.00, subject to the following conditions: (1) Proper zoning for service station use.
