GLADIN, Dir ec tor March 4: 1968 Mr. Robert Dobbs, Chairman Northwes t Perry Homes Citizens Neighborhood Advisory Council 2455 Abner Place, N, W. Atlanta, Georgia 30318 Dear Mr. Dobbs: As the time draws nearer for the next zoning hearing in July on the Browntown public housing, i-c is worthwhile at this point to determine the progres s which the City has made in improving community facilities in the N. W. Perry Homes area. This letter lists specific improvements designated for this year by the Parks and Construction Departments. The various i mp rovements include: Parks 1) Development of Gun Club Park This includes $200,000 from the Parks Improvement Fund for the construction of a recreation building, bathhouse, and swinnning pool at the Gun Club Park site. 2) Redevelopment of Center Hill Park $40,000 has been allocated from the Parks Depart ment's St ate Aide funds for the general redevelopment of Center Hill Park. The improvements will include: site preparation and drainage, driveway and parking spacesy paved court area, a children's area, and the relighting of the existing ball field. Sewers 3) Expansion of Hollywood Road .Lift St ation This expansion will allow fo r increased population development along Proctor Creek. �Mr. Robert Dobbs 4) Page 2 March 4, 1968 ~ellwood Sanitary Re lief Sewer This project includes the construction of a sanitary outfall sewer from Ashby to Proctor Creek to relieve the existing overload of ,the Bellwood Sanitary sewer. Regarding the school situa tion, as of this date the Board of Educa tion has made no plans for a spring bond issue. From what I can gather they -are expecting some bond money to be generated by the stat e legislature in November. Of course, the e:>tpansion of Archer High School is a first priority item as soon as the bond money is acquired by the School Department. As you probably know, I am working with the N. W. Perry Homes Neighborhood Center on improvements in the scheduling and routing of buses. If there are any other matters which you feel deserve our attention, please let me know.• Sincerely yours, Peter Labrie PL/cm Enclosures �
