Hamilton, Esquire Q ’Melveny & Myers 433 South Spring Street Los Angeles 13, California Dear Frank* <u> u> 3=3* <~~n ’•a H~< Oo The Railroad Company is negotiating for the sale to the City of Las Vegas of a parcel of land underlying pipe line shown by red line between points marked JJ and Q on Exhibit "A" attached to the agreement dated June 1, 1953, between LA&3L, UPRR, LVL&WCompany and Las Vegas Valley W a ­ter District covering the sale of the water system at Las Vegas, Nevada. The Railroads are obligated, under subpar­agraph (k-6 ) of paragraph (k) of Section 1 of the agree­ment, to grant an easement 15 feet in width to the District for the pipe line between points JJ and Q. That pipe line is owned by the Las Vegas Land and Water Company. The sale to the City of Las Vegas of the land u n d e r ­lying this pipe line will take place prior to the convey­ance of the water system to the District. Therefore it appears that the appropriate way to protect the interests of the District is for the Railroads to grant to LVL&WCom­pany (prior to the conveyance of the underlying land to the City) an easement, 15 feet in width, for the pipe line between points JJ and Q by a document in the form of the easement, marked Exhibit "F”, attached to the agreement of June 1, 1953* The conveyance of the land to the City would then be subject to the easement in favor of the LVL&WCom­pany, which would be ultimately transferred by the LVL&W Company to the District in fulfillment of the obligations
