Postoffice Plans Now Await Title Abstract
Washington officials said abstracts of title are required before the government can purchase land for the new High Point post office building. The school board was asked to provide title abstracts by December 15, with a 60 day statutory window. A new act allows starting plans before title transfer, aiming to expedite the project once Justice and Treasury sign off. Horace Haworth will prepare the abstracts, with survey maps already delivered for review.
