CITY OF .ATLANTA. June 12, 1969 CITY HALL ATLANTA, GA. 30303 Tel. 522-4463 Area Code 404 IVAN ALLEN, JR ., MAYOR CECIL A. ALEXANDER, Chairman Housin g Resources Committee MALCOLM D. JONES Housing Coordinator The Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr. Mayor, City of Atlanta City Hall Atlanta, Georgia 30303 Dear Ivan: In response to your letter of instructions of April 3, 1969, the Housing Resources Committee has been reorganized and several of the Panels are progressing nicely in their work. One of the key documents you requested our Committee to work on has been most difficult to obtain. This is the report, "Lowering The Cost of Housing", prepared by Eric Hill and Associates for the Model Cities Program. After talking with the staff of the Planning Department, the Model Cities Staff and the Consultant, it appears that the study was completed, sometime in March 1969 and has not yet been printed. We have been advised from time to time that it was in the process of being reproduced. However, we are also told that no specific authorization to print the report has yet been issued. The Construction and Design Panel of HRC is having its study of this report considerably delayed, in waiting for copies of the report. The printing of this report is apparently the responsibility of the Model Cities Program. Consequently, we are asking your assistance as Chairman of the Executive Board to expedite the delivery of this report to us in order that we might proceed with the charge you have given us for 1969. Sincere!~~ Cecil A. Alexander, Chairman Housing Resources Committee CAA/me �
