Subject: FW: Hostel Notes
Hey, Brian. The following is an outline of our concerns/issues with the hostel project. I told you I would
call you Tuesday morning, bit I was able to meet with the tech group and we were able to complete our
review. In addition, we met with Ralph concerning or any combination of our recommended changes
and he assured us that nothing we were proposing would jeopardize their NR status. I have sent this to
you only. But it will be the basis of our meeting Tuesday. Still haven't heard from the other three. Have
a great weekend. Talk to you later.
