Mr. Boger reported that he concurred with the letter from the Institute of Government stating the opinion that this land was the property of the Fair Association subject only to the possibility of reversion.

In conclusion, Mr. Boger~stated he would make a report to the Board and to the public regarding this matter at a later date.
