MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT : Status of Acquisition of Additional Property at. Langley
1. This memorandum is for information only.
2. Clearance from the last of the Congressional committees to proceed
with acquisition of additional real estate was received on 1 February. GSA
had been briefed prior to this time, and on 4 February we requested officially
and formally that they proceed. GSA then made its customary preliminary
estimate of $400, 000 without inspection of the property.
.1 - On 12 February, three of the four owners
were contacted and permission was requested to inspect the premises
for the purpose of making an appraisal of the fair market value. They were
unable to reach the fourth owner[:=until 15 February. The owners of the
two larger tracts have granted permission for
inspection and appraisal. The owners of the two smaller tracts
who have homes on them, are strongly opposed to selling their proper-
ties and, after first granting permission for inspection, canceled it within a
4. GSA has received bids from four contract appraisers, and one of them
will be hired to report on the fair market value of the four parcels. It is esti-
mated that this will require about three weeks.
5. The two GSA realty officers assigned to this acquisition are thoroughly
experienced. They participated in the assembly of several hundred parcels for
the Dulles Airport and now are negotiating for the new Federal Bureau of
Investigation building site on Pennsylvania Avenue. Our chief realty officer
will participate in the negotiations and will be present at all future contacts
with the owners.

6. Congressman Broyhill's office has expressed an interest in this
acquisition and seems completely satisfied with the explanation given by
25X1 John Warner. We have reason to believe that
25X1 E:::::3vill attempt to see that we get some publicity, probably adverse, in
the "Sunday Star" on 17 February.
