A.M. in the main auditori~m of John O. · Chiles Homes, 435 Ashby Street, S.W. (Parking in rear. Please do not park in numbered spaces). As a special featui:efor this meeting we have scheduled a slide and sound presentation explaining nwhat Is Public Housing". This should be a very interesting and informative presentation. Since the last HRC meeting, your Chair man has met with all of the Panels which had not already been given specific assignments and has suggested some pertinent items for study by the respective panels and submission of reports, with recommendations to the HRC, for consideration and action by the Executive Group as a whole. It is anticipated that written reports from all Panels will be submitted to the . Executive Group within 30-60 days. Recommendations should be definite, concise and specifically directed toward constructive positive action by appropriate agencies. Since this is an election year, and the future role of the Committee after January 1 cannot be predicted at this time, the scope of recommendations by the several Panels for action should encompass primarily things that can be done, or at least initiated, during the remainder of this calendar year. We hold hopes for worthwhile accomplishments by all Panels of the Committee during the remainder of 1969, in the field of housing. We trust that you will be able to meet with us on July 17.

ALE XANDER, Chairman Housing Resources Committee MALCOLM D. JONES Housing Coordinator Mr. R. Earl Landers Administrative Assistant On June 23, at request of Jim Parham, I attented a meeting in his office with representatives of J.P. Stephens and Company. Highlights of the meeting were as follows: 1. J.P. Stephens and Company expressed willingness to cooperate fully with EOA, Cit.y of Atlanta or any other agency in resolving the housing delima created by the Company's closing the Exposition Cotton Mills and selling the property for redevelopment. 2. The Company denied lack of information to its people and non-cooperative spirit in dealing with or answering queries of local agencies. 3. 2,700 jobs from other firms were offered to the affected employees after announcement was made of closing the Exposition Cotton Mills. Some of these were accepted. 4. September 1, is the one and only date announced by the Company as to when it would like for all of the houses to be vacated. 5. The Company is still shootilg for this date, but does not pre clude alternatives if justified. 6. Th e re are still 177 families occupying Company home s in the a r ea. 7. The Company anticipates that a sizea ble numb er o f t h ese will vacate during the 4 t h o f J ul y we e k-end. 8. It was agreed by all concerne d tha t t h er e wi l l probably be a residual group ( which cou l d be substantia l) of families which will not move on their own initiative, for various reasons, some of which may be legitimate and some may not. This is the group that both EOA and the Company are concerned about and which could bec ome a problem for the City. �Page Two 9. It was apparent that no organization or Agency of or in the City is currently geared to take on the responsibility of assisting this group, since they are not being displaced by Governmental Action; and the City has no agency to provide relocation assistance in such situations. _Solution was sought without much progress and appeared to be a stalemate. 10. _ I then proposed and so recommend t. ~-· the following, which was enthusiastically received by all participants at the Conference. a. Effective July 15 through August, the Company provide without cost a room(s) on the premises to be set up as a relocation assistance office. This office to be staffed by: 1. A Company Representative 2. EOA Representative(s) 3. Housing Authority Representative(s) (Relocation Worker(s) 4. FHA foreclosure homes office be requested to have informationa l material at this office and a partime representative. b. All remaining families be informed (perhaps by circular) of the existance of this Relocation Ass:i:tance Office and encouraged to register their family composition, ages and sexes, amount the family is able or willing to pay, whether rental or purchase housing is desired and preference as to locations. c. The staff to record this information and then actively attempt to relocate these families in whatever type of housing that may be available, particularly by private development. d. If some families are unable to pay advance rents, make utility deposits and or hire drayaq,e to move, that the staff attempt to get necessary assistance through any source that may be available, including welfare and charitable organizations and that moving of household goods locally if necessary be done by City owned trucks and Prison labor detail (as was done once before in vacating a condemnedflooded - portion of Buttermilk Bottoms). �Page Three 11. It was felt that the Housing Authority could justify its participation in this venture on the theory that it would be checking out these families which might be able to qualify for Public Housing, but if this could not be done legally that the City of Atlanta contract with the Housing Authority in a nominal amount (perhaps $1,000 only) to perform this service, in order to make it legal. I would suggest that the Housing Authority, the Agency mos~ experienced in Relocation, be placed in charge of this emergency operation. Both EOA and the Company agreed to participate in such a project. 12. Unless something of this nature is done timely, I anticipate that at the last minute the City may become embarrassed and critized for not having foreseen the difficulty and done something about it. 13. I recommend that procedure, substantially as indicated above, be effected commencing July 15 and continued until all of the families have been satisfactorily relocated.

(1) Citizens Advisory Committee for Urban Renewal (Encl. 1) There are three major functions of the Citizen's Advisory Committee for Urban Renewal which are directly related to Atlanta's Workable Program and to the community's program to expand the supply of low and moderate income housing: --~·-- ·- ·- -· -, The first · of these three functi6ns, informational services, constitutes a _dynamic informational cl~aring house operation based on the receipt of general arid technical information from yarious speakers at CACUR meetirrgs. This information is then passed on to a large · body of community organizations and leaders.':-t hrough "The Renewer", the officiaJ newsletter of CACUR. The July 19.68, newsletter related comments by Cecil Alexander, Housing Resources Committee Chairman to CACUR· Executive Committee, pointing out .t hat a "Real Need for Low Income Housing is Seen in All Sections of Atlanta .• " (~ontinued on page 18a.) (b) Describe the type of groups (e.g. civic, neighborhood, hous ing) that are participating, and the constituency represented (e.g. poor, middle-class, ~egro, public hous ing residents). Re 1 (a) above. · (1) Generally selected from ~rominent leading citizens _in Atlanta, both White and Negro, in business, education, religious and civic fields. U. R. Project Committees - appointed by the Housing Authoritl from residents, property ·owners and businessmen of the area. PAC Committee - Residents of area, both White and Negro, elected by citizens of the particular area. West Erid Businessme~'s Association - Composed of prominent businessmen in South-West Atlanta (mostly White) i~terested primarily in the future of the West End Urban Renewal Project. (Continued on page lSb.) · 0 18 - �r 1 (Continued from 1. (a) on page 18) Secondly, CACUR members act a s p r o gra m ana lysts by reviewing and commenting on many of the existing a nd new progra ms which are of interest to the Committee and the communi t y as a whole. Feedback from the Committee to the City of Atlanta, Atlanta Housing Authority and responsible federal agencies p r ovides an e x cellent opportunity for these agencies to "feel the pulse" of the community. The third function of CACUR which is of particular interest here is citizen participa tio n . This function is overlapping in that it is the one function universally inhe r ent in all committee efforts. Recently, during an Aldermanic Planning and Development Committee meeting, one Alderman pointed out a "stalemate" situation in the citizen p a rticipation aspects of the NA SH-BANS (Vine City) nei g hborhood. The CACUR Director volunteered the services of CACUR to help wi t h t hat probJem by establishing an associate advisory committee, as had been done in t wo past u r b a n ren·e wal projectsa Since that time, CACUR members, especially President · Noah Langdale, Jr., have worked diligently to contribute to the develop ment of the PAC Committee in Vine City. These are but three major functions of CACUR producing a host of activit i es related to the effective planning and development of a Work able Program and public and private housing program aimed at creating a viable community. a. b. c.

(5) Urban Observatory The January 1, 1969 issue of the Atlanta Journal referred to the Urban Observatory with headline reading"Atlanta: aiggest College Lab in Georgia". That headline succinctly sums up the concept of the Urban Observatory. The basic purpose of the Urban Observatory in Atlanta is (Continued on page 18b.) - 18a- 1 �(Continued from 1. (a) on page 18a.) to liberate the academic resources of the city so that they may study and analyze urban problems in such a way that their work can be of direct value to the public officials of the metropolitan area. The Observatory is designed to foster a partnership between the public officials of the metropolitan area, especially the Mayor of Atlanta, and local colleges and universities. This kind of a partnership can provide a tremendous potential to meet the serious problems of Atlanta with innovative and practical approaches to solutions. The guidance for the Urban Observatory will come from an advisory council which is made up of public officials representing the various governments in the metropolitan area. This council will be especially responsible for the progress of the Observatory. The two major administrative positions in the Observatory organization consist of the Director of the Urban Observatory to be housed in the Urban Life Department at Georgia State College, and City Urban Observatory Coordinator to be hous.ed in the office of the Mayor of Atlanta. One of the basic functional aspects of the Urban Observatory concept is research. Two priority research and development programs for the Observatory during its first year of operation will be housin g and citizen participation in community projects. It was the opinion of those responsible for the operation of the Observatories, located in six cities throughout the United States, that citizen participation is a key issue in the development of sound co~munity rehabilitation programs. The research for the Observatory will be conducted by the faculties of the participating schools. Inter-university research teams, interdisciplinary in makeup, will use dynamic data banks to facilitate and expedite their research. The Observatory concept may well be the key to unlock that door which has too long held back insights into the solution of major urban problems.

(Continued from 4. on page 20) In Urban Rene wal Projects and NDP areas, recommendations of local representative groups are habitually sought and considered in most policy determinations. In zoning matters pertaining to many HUD assisted programs and projects the majority voice of citizens of the area is normally adhered to, so much so that rezoning to accomodate HUD assisted housing projects has been severly curtailed, to the extent of seriously threatening a ccomplishments of the low income housing program, to meet current and future needs.

ALEXANDER, Chairman Housing Re sources Committee MALCOLM D. JONES Housing Coordinator Dear Members, Housing Resources Committee; and Low-income Housing Coordinating Group: I wish to express my appreciation to you for the good attendance and participation at the Housing Resources Committee reorganization meeting on May 8, at which Mayor Allen honored us by his presence and gave us his views on some new approaches for activities of the Committee during the remainder of 1969. Our next meeting will be held Thursday, June 12, in Committee Room 2, Second Floor, City Hall at 10:30 A.M. Special tasks have already been assigned to three of our working Panels and I anticipate making specific assignments to the remaining Panels at our June meeting. The national trend toward production of low-income housing in the near future, as currently being emphasized by the Nixon Administration, is mass production of prefabricated or modular housing to reduce the costs of components and the overall structure, as well as cut down on construction time. I hope that each of you will keep Atlanta's future housing needs in the forefront of your day- to-day activities and deliberations and will not hesitate to advise your Panel Chairman or myself of a ny thoughts or ideas which you may have for improving our housing program and ways and means for reducing costs to the ultimate consumer. Please circle June 12 on your calendar and plan to attend and participate in discussion with us on that date and give us the benefit of your ideas. A self-addressed return postal card is enclosed for your convenience in letting us know whether you plan to attend. Sincerely, Cecil A.

Jon Housing Coordinator MDJ/ itb �May 13, 1969 HOUSING RESOURCES COMMITTEE Report COMPLAINT On April 18, Mr. Albert N. Cowan made the following complaint to this office. His brother, Robert H. Cowan, of Jacksonville, Florida, owns a residential structure (Cowan Family .Home) located at 1043 Stewart Avenue, s.w., in the Adair Park portion of Model Cities area; that Robert H. Cowan was required by the City of Atlanta (Building Department Housing Code Division) during 1967 to bring this structure up to Housing Code standards and spent $6,600 on the project; that the work was done by a Mr. G. J. Carruth, a White Minister, who also professed to be a Contractor. Mr. Cowan continued that recently bis brother was called into the Housing Authority Reha bilitation Office at 530 McDaniel Street , S.W. and told that additional work needs to be done on his house which will cost an additional estimated $7, 000; that he may obtain a 3% direct Federal loan with up to a 20-year mortgage and has 60 days in which to comply. Mr . Albert Cowan also said that his brother is 76 years old and does not want to place a new 20-year mortgage on this property, even if it is at 3% interest. (Estimated cost is approximately $5.55 per. month, per $1,000 ) ; that he lets his sister, Miss Pearl Cowan, live there free and Miss Pearl Cowan rents rooms (I understand as a livelihood which is her principal source of income and support); that the house is liveable and basically sound; that no major damage or vandalism has occurred to the property since it was brought up �-2- to Housing Code standards by the City in 1967; that the owner, Robert H. Cowan, is willing to make additional minor repairs occassioned by fair, wear and tear during the past 2 years, but does not feel that he should be required to spend now an additional $7,000, after having spent $6,600 in 1967 to meet City requirements, which were designated, inspected and work accepted by the City's official representatives. FINDINGS Check with the Housing Code Division reveals that on February 9, 1967, a Housing Code case was initiated against this property in connection with a house-by-house inspection in a designated concentrated Housing Code Enforcement area; that a building permit for repair of this structure was taken out 4-24-67 by G. J. Carruth, Contractor, in amount of $4,100; that the work was complied 6-9-67 by the Housing Code Division and certificate issued for 3 units, with existing facilities (copy of Housing Code record attached, Encl. 1). Mr. Cowan maintains that his brother paid $6,600 to the contractor and presumes that the extra $2,500 above permit cost was the contractor's profit . He also states that the contractor procured floor tile for one of the rooms but did not install it, which he promised to do later, but never did. Check with the Housing Authority Rehabilitation Office for Model Cities at 530 McDaniel Street, s.w., reveals that on Apr il 22, 1969, that office issued Mr. Robe rt H. Cowan an itemized list of "Violations" which also stated that all work to be done shall comply with specifications set forth in "Invitations to Bid" and .. Minimum Property Standards for Urban Renewal Rehabilitation" and that the property be reduced to two units (copy attached, Enclo 2). �-3The Housing Authority Inspector's estimate of the cost of this work was originally $7,000 but was later reduced to $6,000 as result of conference between the owner and inspector. This is essentially what has happened: A. Model Cities has designated this portion of the Adair Park area for rehabilitation in 1969, although it was included in a concentrated Housing Code Enforcement program conducted in the same area on a house-by-house basis in 1967. B. Model Cities has accepted Urban Renewal Project Rehabil::itation Standards, essentially as used in West End, i.e., "Property Rehabilitation Standards, Model Cities Urban Renewal Redevelopment Area", based on HUD Pamphl e t PG-50, " Rehabilitation Guide for Res idential Pr operties ". These Urban Renewal Rehabilitation standa r ds wer e prepared by the HUD Regional Sta f f . C. The HUD Gu i d e is r e a sonable a nd p ermits consid er able f lexibility in local applic at ion. Howev er, the st a nd ard s p r epar ed by the Housing Authority and appr oved by HUD includ e • considerable local interpretation of the HUD Guide and, as was explained to me by the Housing Authority Rehabilitation Inspector, are intended to essentially �-4rebuild properties, rather than just repair them, and is designed to place them in essentially new house condition, presumably free from additional maintena,n ce for the next 15 years, thus placing them in . a category very similar to housing rebuilt for resale under the FHA 221 (h) program. D. No consideration has been given to the City's previous rehabilitation efforts in this area under the Housing Code. Zoning requirements for the area have been taken literally from the Zoning Map, with no allowances made for previously approved use of specific structures. E. No consideration is given to legal non-conforming uses in the area, authorized by the Zoning Ordinance. F. Although most of the Model Cities' requirements are reasonable and would be desirable if no other improvement efforts bad been made on the property recently, some of the requirements however appear impractical, particularly for rental property. Examples in this particular case are: 1. Requiring resanding and refinishing of perfectly solid wooden floors throughout. 2. Removal of good fencing, desired to be retained by the owner as a means of protection. �-53. Removal of serviceable electric switch in hallway entrance to the bathroom and re-installing same switch inside the bathroom. COMMENT The Model Cities Rehabilitation Standards as such, are unenforceable. If owners fail to comply voluntarily , the Housing Authority has no other course open than to turn the case over tb the City to effect compliance. At this point (and this is quite important) the City will require, and the Courts will enforce, only complicance with the City of Atlanta's Housing Code. This is one reason why on October 18, 1968, in Memorandum to Mayor Allen I recommended: "That rehabilitation in the Model Cities area be accomplished by the City, rather than by the Housing Authority, utilizing both the City and Housing Authority Inspectors. This is believed to be the most feasible procedure in view of the extent of current trained staffs available and should produce the fastest results • • • • • That the Hous.ng Code standards be recommended for use as the Rehabil i tation Standards in the Model Cities area e • •" Also o n October 31 , 1968, in Memorandum to the Director of Model Cities , I s t a ted: "Also, I feel v er y s t r o ng ly t h at o ne s et o f r ehabi lit at ion standards only f o r t he entire Mode l Cities shou l d b e es t ablished for execution by both the Housing Authority and the Ci ty; and that initial notices to property owners to rehabilitate their dwellings to meet �-6- required standards should be issued in the name of the City of Atlanta, regardless of who or under whose jurisdiction the actual processing and execution is accomplished. This is to provide the legal require- ments necessary to invoke the Police Powers of the City, if necessary, at a later date to insure compliance. This -will avoid encountering extensive time delays later and costly repetition of efforts in processing rehabilitation notices originally issued by the Housing Authority Inspectors, but which may eventually have to be turned over to the City to enforce in order to obtain compliance ••••" Comparison of Federal Pamphlet PG-50 "Rehabilitation Guide for Residential Properties" and the City Housing Code standards reveals that they are quite similar and not sufficiently far apart to justify two sets of standards for rehabilitation of residential properties within the same area, simultaneous or in quick succession, as in this instance. · However, two sets of standards do currently exist and probably won't be changed now, in view of HUD's · already approval of the Urban Renewal.Rehabilitation standards. In general, little fault can be found with the Urban Renewal Rehabilitation requirements, and the procedure for effecting them provides assistance and controls which are definitely helpful. See'General Conditions - Bids and Proposal - Construction Contract" (Encl. 3). Therefore adoption of proposed procedure by the City in the Model Cities area appears appropriate and desirable, in fairness to . property owners, while at the same time attempting to meet the objectives of Model Cities for improvements " above and beyond" required Housing Code standards. �-7- EFFECTS AND RE SULTS A tour of the Adair Park Neighborhood (Stewart Avenue West), where the City Housing Code was enforced on a house-by-house basis just t wo years ago, reveals a very neat an~ well-kept neighborhood. With fe w exceptions, this area is definitely a credit to the Housing Code Enforcement efforts and to the City of Atlanta in general. If all of Atlanta was in as good condition of maintenance and general up-keep as this area is now, there would be no problem. There are probably several hundred decent, safe and sanitary residential structures in this general area in good sound livable condition that are, or will be, effected in a very similar manner to Mr. Cowan's property. Wi t h all of the much worse housing in so many portions o f the Mod el Ci ties area, which badly needs r ehabili t a t ion, i t is unfor t u n at e that a p o r t i o n o f this exc el lent a re a whic h was jus t brought u p t o Housing Code requirements wi thin t he p a st tw o years, h a s been selec ted for Urban Renewal Rehabili t ati o n during 1 969. This see ms a misuse of effort and waste of money, both p ri v a t e a nd pub l i c . I f the City is to have the support of property owners in a n y ne i ghbor hood, and this it must have for suc c ess of rehabilitation eff o rts , thes e people, their pocketbooks and pre vious improvement efforts must be g iv en app ropr iat e consideration . PROPOSED PROCEDURE A. That owners in the Model Cities rehabilitation areas be informed of Model Cities s t andards and provided with lists of specific improv ements needed to meet these standards. Also that they be advised of the special benefits and free services such as 3% interest, 20- year mortgage rehabilitation �-8- loan, free architectural advice, competent direct supervision over work being done and -withholding payment to the contractors until work has been completed and accepted as satisfactory; and to offer these benefits to the owners if they wish to take idvantage of them. B. At the same time however, inform the owners that all of these improvements, although desirable, are not mandatory or enforceable, but that the Housing Code requirements are. C. Then give each owner .the opportunity to decide which course he desires to follow. Unless this is done openingly and above board, many property owners, through ignorance of the law and or fear of getting entangled with City Hall, will commit themselves to larger expenditures than are necessary or that they desire or are financially able to carry out, thus envoking actual hardship. While the rebuilding concept, as opposed to repair, is costly to the property owners in Adair Park, which is basically a substantial upper-middle cla ss neighborhood where most of the structures are basically sound and well-kept, the current policy will be particularly costly and difficult for the less affluent property owners in areas such as Summerhill , Mechanicsvi lle and Pittsburgh where the structures are poorer built initially and in much worse state of maintenance. This proposed procedure has been discussed with, and would have the support of, the Chief Housing Code Inspector, Building Department and the Supervisor, Housing Authority, Model Cities Rehabilitation �-9- Office, 530 McDaniel Street, S.W. Unless procedure substantially as indicated above is adopted, the entire rehabilitation effort in the Model Cities area is very l~kely to eventually result as a serious detriment to success of the program and to the goodwill and support of the housing improvement programs of the City in general and of Model Cities area in particular. RECOMMENDATION Therefore, I recommend and strongly urge that the above indicated procedure be adopted in this particular case and in similar situations in all NDP areas, in fairness and justice to all concerned.

Ou ts id e o f the boundaries o f conventiona l urban renewal projects, the Ne ighborhood Dev elopment Pr o gram and Model Cities Pr og ram, the pr oc urer.ient and d evelopment o f sites fo r housing can best be expected to c ome along by themse l ves because o f the momentum g enerat ed in the in i tial two years. If there is a need for prodding here, it is in the direction of placing greater emphasis in outlying are~s of the City on single-fami ly, p ubli c housing and higher density public h o using in close proximity to the central core of the C i ty. HR C can be most helpful in providing this type of direc tion to city de v elopment , and 5. I n general , the new housing units which have been developed were intended as replacement housing for slum properties . Yet, slums still exist. In the future , HRC should seek to de v ise and implement ways and means through which one slum structure would be deraolished �• Page 3 for each new low-cost housing unit created. Unless this is done i mmediately, the same slums will be with us indefi nitely. _Mayor Allen stated that low-income housing usually impr oves the neighborhood after it has bee n developed. He stated that he does not believe that large trac_ts of land are going to l;)e zoned this year (beca u se of impending po lit ical elections) in hesidential areas for low-income housing. Probably the land sur rounding already existing hou sing developments can be expanded and some new developments, perhaps in the outly ing area s. Mr ~ Alexander agreed with Mayor Allen on the elimination of slums in the At la nta area and emphasized the importance of the Mayor's rol e in the overall program . Mr . Alexander then commented on the Broad Functions set up for the Committee (copies distributed and with file copy only of these mnutes).

At this point, Mr . Archer D. Smith , III , Chairman of the Legal Panel , asked Mayor .!Hlen if his new direction letter to the Chairman meant that the Housing Resources Committee should discontinue its previous efforts in promoting sites for low and medium income housing and assisting develop~r8 by supporting rezoning of certain proposed tracts considered appr opriate for this purpose. Mayor Allen responded that he did not intend to restrict activities of the HRC in any of its efforts in providing lowincome housing; that his letter to Mr. Alexander was intended to re-define and provide direction for new additional efforts by the Committee. Mr. Alexander then intr od uced Mr . M. B. Satterfield, retiring Executive Direct o r of the Housing Authority . He praised Mr. Satterfield for his excellent contribution to the housing situation in the City of Atlanta , and as a tok en of the Committee's appreciation for Mr .
