\Jo CITY OF A.TLAI'JT.A October 29, 1968 CITY HALL ATLA1'."'TA, GA. 30303 Tel. 522-4463 Area Code 404 !VAN ALLEN, JR., MAYOR CECIL A. ALEXANDER, Chairman Housing Resources Committee MALCOLM D. JONES Housing Coordinator Dear Members: Executive Group, Hous.ng Resources Committee, Housing Coordinating Group (and Guests) In view of the Workshop on Housing being held by NAHRO on November 6-8 at the Marriott in Atlanta, the Nov.ember meeting of the Executive Group, HRC and the Low-income Housing Coordinating Group, regularly scheduled for November 7, will be postponed. The November meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m. Tuesday, November 12, in Committee Room No. 2, Second Floor, City Hall. This meeting will feature a presentation by the Model Cities Staff to the Model Cities Executive Board of the proposed plans for development for the Model Cities area. This is very timely and should be interesting and stimulatin~ especially in view of the new approach to Urban Renewal known as the "Neighborhood Development Program" recently authorized by the Housing Act of 1968. This requires planning and execution to be done simultaneously by increments, approved on a yearly basis. It is expected that Model Cities will get into the execution phase under this new concept by January 1, 1969. In addition to Model Cities, we expect to have a veiy interesting film, "Cora Street", to show you._ This film was made by ACTION Housing, Inc. of Pittsburgh. The film features typical slum conditions throughout the nation and shows what is being done in certain cit~es to improve and correct the situation. ' Although riot yet definite, we propose to hold the 1968 Annual Meeting of the HRC (full Committee Membership} on Thursday, Decemb~r 5, at 11:00 · a.m. in Committee Room No. 2, Second Floor, City Hall. _ Please circle the date on your calendar ~ We expect to have available for the Annual Meeting in December a run down on the first two years' activities and accomplishments of the Housing Resources Committee and to present for your consideration some proposals for future operation of the Committee. �
