Research Notes  

1. Though unsigned, it is clear the handwriting and voice match that of the handwritten notes by Robert Sharp in document 90.11.1 in the Laguna Founders Archive.

2. Though undated, a note on page 3, which says, "The $3000 per acre figure arrived at two years ago is probably 25-30% too low at this time," suggests that these notes were written in 1990 because the first draft showing the $3000 estimate is from 1988 in document 88.119 in the Laguna Founders Archive. If not for this critical note, the document would have been placed in 1988 because it refers to many issues that are found in the documents of that year.

Research Notes  

1. Page 1 is closely related to documents 90.6 and 90.7 in the Laguna Founders Archive. 90.7 is a letter to Congress written by William E. Haigwood.

2. Page 2 is an edited and expanded version of document 89.4. It was probably updated after the State of the Laguna Conference of September 23, 1989, which is the subject of document 89.17.1.

3. Page 3 appears to be a mailing list of the initial Directors of the Laguna de Santa Rosa Foundation after they filed for non-profit status, but before they were incorporated. An inset in document 90.3 shows that the Laguna Advisory Committee filed to become the Laguna Foundation in May 1990, while part of document 90.25 provides a brief account of the Laguna Foundation after it was incorporated in October 1990.
