If tlv'°e are additional l?l~er to be discussed following Y",.r meeting with the Ho1ing Authority , I will be glad .o make myself available. S incerely, Ivan Allen, Jr. lAJr:am �TUFF The Emmaus House 1017 capitol Avenue, S.W. Atlanta, Georgia 30315 December 3rd, 1968 Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr. Mayor, City of Atlanta City Hall Atlanta, Georgia Dear Mayor Allen: Tenants United For Fairness (TUFF) is an organization dedicated to obtaining fair treatment for the residents of public housing in Atlanta. Its members include public housing tenants, other members of the low-income community who have been or may be in the future tenants in public housing, and other individuals who are sympathetic to the goals of the organization. As you will recall, TUFF selected the November 8th meeting of the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials (NARRO) at the Marriott Motel to bring to the attention of the public the d e plorable conditions of life in the AHA projects. When a group of TUFF members appeared before you at that meeting to seek your assistance in their dealings with the Atlanta Housing Authority, you generously offered your help and sympathy. The purpose of this letter is to respond to your offer, and to ask you to meet with us and to use the power and prestige of your office to bring about a resolution of our conflicts with the Atlanta Housing Authority . As you know, our individual grievances are numerous, and~ to us, deeply distressing. They involve hundreds of incidents including the AHA's arbitrary decisions to dig up all of the gardens at Capitol Homes; they involve the fines and rule s imposed by the housing authority in a manner that seems to us unfair; and they involve a general atmosphere of bullying and intimidation. �Honorable Ivan Allen December 3, 1968 --Page 2 We would not, however, seek to burden you with our individual problems. We turn to you because the entire system of public housing in Atlanta is operated in an arbitrary manner, without any concern whatsoever for the rights, desires or legitimate aspirations of the tenants. We turn to you for assistance in making basic structural changes in the operation of the Atlanta Housing Authority. In brief, we would like to discuss the necessity for tenant participation in the management of public housing, and the necessity for a tenant review board or hearing panel empowered to hear all tenant complaints and to review all decisions of the local housing managers. We are not alone in realizing the necessity for greater tenant involvement in the operation of public housing, nor in recognition of the necessity for housing authorities to realize that public housing residents have rights that must be protected. As one example of the nationwide concern with these questions, we have attached to this letter a copy of the questions posed by NARRO to its November 8 Workshop, asking: 1. How are The H..~A Social Goals Being Implemented in Public Housing? and; 2. What Does Tenant Participation Mean? Many of the questions asked by NARRO point directly to the abusive practices we seek to change. We have also attached a copy of the proposed Bill of Rights For Public Housing Tenants. This Bill of Rights was drafted by and has been presented by The Housing Law Center of the Earl Warren Institute to HUD for adoption. We believe that Atlanta can and should l ead the nation by being the first city to adopt it as a guideline for the AHA. In light of the foreg oing, we the undersigned tenants of public housing and members of TUFF request that you meet with our representatives to discuss ou r problems. We also request that you assist us by arranging for ou r representatives to meet with representatives of the AHA so that our grievances and our requests may be presented to them. �Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr. December 3rd, 1968 --Page 3 we sincerely believe that many of our differences with the Atlanta Housing Authority can be resolved through frank and sincere negotiations. We seek the opportunity for such negotiations at the earliest possible date, and implore you to assist us in our endeavors. Sincerely, '1'l~1V!~~IRNES~ Mrs. Mandy M.

Please read over the paragraph on the second page which I have clipped. I have circled the word on Dan's draft which I wasn't sure of - I believe it is "Commissioners". You might be able to tell if this is the right word or not. I'm not sure! Also, do we need to send copies to anyone? Dan didn't indicate whether we should or not. If we do, I'll need to ma_k e Xerox copies before it is mailed. Faye �" ' ,I -

Sterne, Chairman Atlanta Housing Authority . 639 Trust Company of Georgia Building Atlanta, Georgia 30303 Dear Eddie: Thirty-one years ago the Atlanta H o using Authority was established to provide for decent shelter for the less fortunate citizens of Atlanta. Under the Authority leadership, the very first low-rent public housing project in America was built - Techwood Homes. Since that time, AHA has built and operated some 10,550 units. of public housing and has ' almost 1, 587 units under construction for occupancy very soon. At the same time, AHA has been the administrative arm for the City of Atlanta urban redevelopment program. Like the public housing program, the urban renewal program has long been recognized as one of the most outstanding in th e United States. No one can deny this fact! The Atlanta Housin g Authority has been a moving force behind the growth and development of this city. Over the years sinc e the inception of AHA, we have seen staggering changes in the economic, social and political face of Atlanta. AHA , like many other successful forces in the city, has been an agent for much of this change. It has, in fact, undergone much change in itself. Any organization which exists for any length of time builds up policies and procedures which must undergo constant review and revision as the environment in which it operates undergoes revision and evolution. �Mr. Sterne Page Two March 6, 1969 The demands of the Tenants United for Fairness (TUFF) is a manifestation of one of the most profound changes in our society of the last decade. The rising expectations of the poor and forgotten for a bigger voice in the things which affect their lives have united many individuals in hopes that the many voices joined together will be heard. The voices of these people might not always be right, but they must be heard. It is my thought that the best interests of all the city could be served by a general public review of AHA policies and procedures and revision of such policies and procedures where this might be necessary to protect and satisfy the city as a whole. I do not intend to imply that AHA is right or wrong in any way so far as charges of TUFF are concerned. But I do feel that AHA, through its owh initiation, might do everyone a great good by calling for a general review of its operations. This might be done by setting up a blue ribbon committee of AHA commissioners, tenant representatives and leaders from the Chamber of Commerce, Christian Council, League of Women Voters, etc. Professional consultant help might also be brought in to assist such a committee. I realize such a step could be a painful experience. it might be the less painful route in the long run. At the same time, I will appreciate your comments and thoughts.

Brennan, Jr. George Howell John Stephen Price Sondra Goldenfarb The present status of TUFF is as follows: On January 16th, the Executive Board of TUFF had a meeting with the Board of Commissioners of the Atlanta Housing Authority, and presented to AHA a "Tenants' Bill of Rights a copy of which I have enclosed for your convenience. There was only desultory talk about TUFF's grievances, the principal issue TUFF presented to the authority being the future and not the past. That meeting concluded when the Authority agreed to "study" the proposed Bill of Rights. When Mrs. Mandy Griggs asked Mr. Stern how TUFF would have to wait for a response, Mr. Stern informed her that he "hoped" to have a response "within six months" but could make no promises. 11 , On February 3rd, TUFF called a meeting of community leaders to discuss tenants' grievances against the Atlanta Housing Authority. The following organizations were represented at that meeting : Good Government Atlanta Southern Christian Leadership Conference Metropolitan Atlanta Summit Leadership Conference Alpha and Omega Christian Church Young Men On The Go SPON SOR ED BY UNI TED APP EAL AND ECONOM I C OPPORT UNI TY ATLA N TA, INC. �February 10th, 1969 Page #2.

Approximately seventy peo ple were in attendance and at the close of the meeting, Reverend B. J. Johnson recommended that those present support the efforts of TUFF to obtain the Tenants ' Bill of Rights they had requested1 and support TUFF in any other way p ossible. �Mr. John Robinson Office of the Mayor February 10th, 1969 Page #3. The Motion was unanimously carried and the participants of the meeting then determined to have a mass meeting on public housing property in order to test the housing authority's decision to forbid TUFF the use of its community centers. The group agreed to meet late in F e bruary. The leaders of TUFF and the leaders of the organizations represented at the Fe bruary 3rd meeting are now making plans for that mass meeting. According to my most recent information, the Boards of Directors of the f ollowing organizations have endorsed TUFF' s Bill o f Rights and p l edged to s uppo rt TUFF: Metropolitan Atlanta Summit Leadership Conference Con c e rned Clergy Good Government Atlanta Ge o rgia Council on Human Relations, a nd Metro p olitan Atlant a Ho usin g Conference , I nco rporated.
