Berry Deputy Chief Administrative Officer Mayor's Off ice City of Atlanta Atlanta, Georgia 30303 Dear George: This is to acknowledge your letter of November 25, 1969, which relates to my letter of November 24 regarding certain contracts that have been entered into by the City of Atlanta Urban Corps and various agencies, connnissions, educational institutions and a comment I made in my letter of November 24 regarding the holding of payments for certain funds of the Urban Corps. The next to the last paragraph of my letter contains a mis-statement I would like to correct; that is to delete the wording "for income". This paragraph should have read: "In a review of my files, I do not have filed with this office an agreement relating to the number of interns the City is to receive and the consideration the City is to pay f or these interns. By a copy of this letter, I am asking the Accounts Payable Auditor not to process any payments of these funds allocated for the Urban Corps unt il this agreement is received." The letter to Mr. Ken Mi llwood was dictated on Saturday, November 22, and signed that day by me for delivery to Mr, Mil lwood on November 24. Your transmittal of the agreement was stamped received by this office on Monday, November 24 which is the day I was in New York. In your letter of November 25, you state: "Not withstanding the fact you had this contract in hand before your letter was written, your threat to cut off the Urban Corp's funds is highly improper". As I explained to you over the telephone on Tuesday, November 25, the agreement was not in my hands prior to dictating my letter of November 24, and I do not consider it improper to say that I am cutting off funds of the Urban Corps. As a matter of fact, I could make no payments to the Urban Corps under the contract until the contract was thoroughly executed and received in this office. If yot.rstatement had reference to positions that are established by Ordinances and on the payroll of the City, I can see your concern but this was certainly not the intent of my letter of November 24. �\ Mr. George J. Berry Page Two December 8, 1969 George, since our correspondence, we have received from your office the signed executed agreement on the Urban Corps, and we have also received a requisition for payment to the Urban Corps for the sums due them. This payment is has been processed and is in the hands of the Urban Corps at this time. I trust that this concludes this subject. Sincerely, Charles L.

Being a City sponsored prog ram, the City could reasona bly e xpect to a bso rb ~ t h i s t otal cost. The remaining $64,344 can t hen be viewed as representing the City's �Memorandum George Berry & Charles Davis November 12, 1969 matching share of interns used by City departments. This cost represents 34% of the salaries of interns assigned to the City for 1970. ~n using this $64,344 in computing cost per man year, the result is: $64,344 for 44.1 man years= $1,459.02 per man year (The 52 man years quoted by Mr. Dan Sweat in his memo of November 5, 1969, is inaccurate because it does not allow for part-time employment. Using 52 man years, the cost is $1,237.39 per man year.) The cost to the private agencies participating is: 93 man years for $116,808 = $1,256 per man year. Accepting the algument that the City truly benefits from all the interns in the Corps, the cost per man year would be: \~1 man years-$139,693 = $1,042 per man year (This figure does not include the 31 staff members who in total will contribute some 17 full man years to the operation.) I believe these computations make the City's involvement more reasonable in compasison to that of the non-profit agencies. I feel the key point is not one of finance, but one of purpose. The Urban Corps, although it has involved financial ties, is not based on percentages of cost, cost per man year, or who pays how much. It is based entirely on service to the community and educational enrichment of the students. It would seem to me that it is worth at least $140 , 000 to the City to continue such an enterprise. - 2 - �ME MO R A N D U M TO : FROM: George Berry , Governme ntal Liai s on Charles Davis, Dire ctor of Finance DATE: Novemb er 12 , 1969 Ken ~illwood , Dire ctor SUBJ ECT : Ur ban Corps 19 70 Budget Proposal There s eems to be s ome que s tion a s to t he derivation of t he reques t for $13 9,69 3 tat t he Urban Corps has made of t he City of Atlanta.

These are only the quantifiable poten.tials of an effective Orban Cor ps program. The very real potentials of community benefit, educational enrichment, a counter-measure to student rad icalization, and the benefit to the individual student are also deeply rooted into the Urban Corps concept. As further clarification, let me say that t he budget ks for $75,349 to finance t he administration oft Urban Corps for one year. An additional $64,344 (makina total of $ 13916 3) is ne ded to meet the rity's share of the salaries of internc. working in city epartroents. (This cost represents 34~ of th se interns total stipend which is conparable to the 30 pai d by non- city agencies.) Thank you for your consideration of th's s ry and to the Urban Corps proposal .

The endorsement of the South ' s leading urban administrator lent invaluable credibility to our efforts. More i mportant to us locally, I personally thank you for the expression of support you gave me in the budget hearing the afternoon of that same day .

One of the papers is a letter dated Oc-tober 17, 1969 from Mr. William R. O'Connell, Jr . to Mayor Allen , setti ng f orth c ertain stipu lat i ons fo r the cont i nuation of the Ur ba n Cor ps i n ternship pr ogr am thr ough Dec ember , 1969 . The problem appears to be whether t he above l etter mi ght be agr eed to and thereby become a contr ac t i n accordance with t h e terms of a resolution adopted October 6 , 1969 . In an effort t o unders tan~ the problem, I have examined your f ile on the Urban Corps and r ea d cons i der able papers . I am s t i ll no t c ertain t ha t I fully comprehen d it . The reso l ution a do pted Oc t ober 8, 1969 s tates that irthe Mayor is authorized to execute an agreement with the Southern Regional Education Board providing that the Board will assume all financial responsibility f or t he payroll cos t s of the Urban Corps f or the fall 1969 -. ,r The res ol u tion further allows the payment of not more than $8000.00 for interns that are used solely by the City . I do not feel that simply having the Mayor sign Mr . O'Connell's letter agree ing to . the terms therein would be sufficient under the circumstances. This is not to say that a contract cannot be raised �Mro George Berry October 23, 1969 Page 2 by the acceptance of a tetter or the exchange of letters, but such a procedure is more suitable for private persons than for public bodies. In order to satisfy the requirements of the resolution of October 8, 1969, an agreement containing specific details is necessary. At the same time, the document should be in the nature of a formal contract, not solely for the sake of formality, but for the sake of clarityo According to my understanding, it appears that SREB officials had some objections to a proposed contracto It might be that some other approach will he· acceptable to them and also satisfy the requirements of the resolution.

The Urban Corps is now planning for its needs, in terms of manpower, and financing for 1970. One critical need will be expanded office ·space. Our staff will include some twenty-five (25) people after January 1, 1970 (20 of which will be interns). We had fifteen (15) staffers this surmner and at that we were crowded. This condition led to a degree of inefficency and a lack of proper co~ordination o After January 1, we will need to use the room behind our present office. This space was previously used by the Atlanta Youth Council but is now vacant. We can house ten (10) or twelve (12) of our staffers in there (although they will still be cramped). I am asking you to either give me permission to use the room yourself if possible or to inform me of the proper procedure for obtaining this permission.

Apf'ro:dmately Interns were placed in 35 public interest non-profit agencies and 15 departments of the ~ity of Atlanta. Approximacely 45% of the students were black and 55% white. A ~yptcal example of a city department internship was a team of 15 students doing research and data analysis in the City fnnitation department. Others s~rved on the Mayor's staff doing research and another example was students compiling financial information for possible tax legislation in the City of Atlanta. The private public-interest agencies tended to utilize students more in the social and humanistic disciplines euch as counseling or working in recreation programs involving young people and actual communities. A typical example is an intern serving in the Emmaus House t eaching children from depriv"ed neighborhoods bas_ic reading skills and education courses during the summe r . Another exampl e involved ten students in a mentally retarded children I s c:9-mp S?onsored by the Decatur-Dekalb YMCA. Thi ~ su:nm-c!r our ope ra ting budgets was approximately $200,000 broken down a s f o llowr,< $52 , 000 Approprta tion from City of Atlanta $20 , 000 Southern Regional Education Board .. 1 j �$13,000 Private Business Contributors $75,000 College ·Work-Study Program (Grants from the Office of Education through Individual Colleges) Private Public -interest Agencies Volunteers in Service to America $20,000 $20,000 Approximately half, or 114 students, were spousored under the College WorkStudy program, which is a federally sponsored program of the Office of Education whereby the college pays 80% of the ' intern's stipend, with the agency involved supplying the remaining 20%. The College Work-Study progr am is available to every public college and grants vary according to requests and needs of the colleges involved. The student financial aid officer is in charge of these funds of each campus and can allocate them as he desires to " off-campus non-protit agencies " such as the Atlanta Urban Corps. This sununer we were fortunate in persuading financial aid officers to contribute heavily to the Atlanta Urban Corps, and evidently this figure will rise apprecialby next year. Interns salaries were $72.000 (1.80/hr) weekly for freshman and sophomores, $88.00 ($2.20/hr) weekly for juniors and seniors and $100.00 ($2.50/hr) for graduate students. We received 880 student applications for the summer program giving a very good indication that students are indeed very interested in participatin~ in summer internships and coll ege-c ommunity i nvo lvement programs . We received 300 reque sts from c i ty departments a nd publ i c interest-agencies requesting interns to serve as assistants during the summer. Unfortunatel y these position ' requests usually c an't be paid for at ful l cost by the agency, hence, the need for private donations for non-work-s t udy i nterns. We have alread y received over 75 requests for interns t o serve during the academic program. This summer the Urban Corps wa s administered by a student staff of 15 people whose abili t ies and dedication are directly attributable to the program's 2 �success. We started extremely late in the acade mic ye ar and ended up with a very substantial program involving numerous colleges and students. We were fortunate that much ground work had been done i n Atlanta and many of the organizations whose resources were needed had been involved early in the planning and understood the aspects of the program well. This was due to hard work done by many students in Atlanta . from various coll eges. A special note of thanks should go to Dave Whelan, Mark Dash and Rich Speer , whose early work in contacting the Board of Trustees and especially fund ra i sing later proved beneficial to the Urban Corps. We found that these students, through contacting various colleges, were primarily responsible for the h i gh number of applications we received with little ~ or no publicity. This summer the Urban Corps has administratively operated under the City of Atlanta and the Southern Regional Education Board, pr i marily f or contractural agreements purposes with the agencies and for le gal contracts wi th the colleges. A very large in determining administrative respons i bility was i n the que stion of who served as the paymaster. The Ci ty was most coope r ative this sum- me r in absorbing a de ficit spending s i tuation whereby i t abso r bed the cost o f the stude nt's st i pend unt i l coll e ge s could r eimburse them. Also , many agenc ie s we re tardy in pay ing the i r share of the studen t 's stipend. In some cas e s th i s meant a debt of $60 , 000 whi ch wa s carried ove r a t hree or fou r we ek pe r i od . Th i s is t he primary pr obl em in ut i l izi ng a group such as t he Boa r d of Tr ustees in ha nd • ling admi n is trative d ifficult ie s tha t ari se i n the Urba n Corps . I f t he Board o f Trustees had a large bank a ccount and could ab s orb tremendous deficits within a short period of time , no d iff ic ulty would ari s e. Otherwi s e, the City must be re- tained in some paymaster role or l egal role for contractural authority. (In my opinion, the Urban Corps as we know it today, should operate under its present sys tem through the summer of 1970 with the Board of Trustees taking ultimate control in September of 1970.) The financial and payroll p roblems incurred this : summer point to the need for extensive planning and lead time before the Trustees 3 �take over the Urban Corps operation. A special note of thanks should go to Dan Sweat, who helped us with space, payroll problems, contractural problems , and staff expenses during the inttial summer program. Unfortunately , those elected officials at City Hall do not com- pletely agree with Mr. Sweat. The City Finance Committee naturally closely scruntinizes our monetary requests. From a purel y financial point of view these members of the Board of Aldermen do, not agree thab we should have educational counseling as they put no emphasis on the educational aspects of the program. These financial people interpret the Urban Corps as a cheap summer employment program for summer months only. from the colleges and those This aga i n is an i ndication that more input is needed 11 educa tion' 1 spec trums o f the community . Naturally the ,more money that comes in from other sources the more autonomy we may have in making expenditures. From the first ideas of the Urban Corps to its actual implementations, there has been a tremendous emphasis on student input. Presently, we have a high deg re e of student participat ion in that all of our staff members are students. In my cpinion, student repreaentation·should be included on the Board o f Trustees, but these students should come from the ranks of those who have served as Urban Corps interns, rather than having student governments elect any ±nterested student to serve in that role. From operational experiences this summer, we have found that the program is best administe red by one individual re po rting to a small group of people rather than the original proposal o f having two people head the organization, one in the role of a student director and one in the role of the staff director. My sugge stion for continuing the student input is to make sure that the Director i s a young pe r son, p referably a graduate student h i mself and that the Board of Trustees function more closely to the Urban Cor ps . Presently, the Atlanta Urban Corps, Inc., exists only on paper. 4 The Internal �Revenue Service has granted the Atlanta Urban Corps, Inc., a tax exemption status. specific. The next step f~r the Board of Trustees i s to make the by-laws more Also, t4e membershi p of t he Board of Trustees should be revised to make sure that all sectors of the community are equally i nvolved and that no sector is overwe ighed, specjfically in r e f erence to t he r esources needed to " . operate the Urban Corp~.

The Office of Education is presently implementing this guideline which means that next year the Urban Corps in Atlanta will absorb approximately $700,,000 of College Work-Study funding. We anticipate roughly 1;000 summer interns next year and 100 interns dur i ng the academi c year. We are also working closely with colleges in trying t o persuade them to grant academic credit with gu i delines to i nsure t hat educational .experieuce is indeed received. We are running into quite a b i t o f d if f i culty in the area of academic credit and welcome help fr om t he members o f the Board of Trustees. A very unique part of the Atlanta Urban Corps i s its Field and Education Staff. This summer this group o f students staf fe rs has structured seminars and visited with interns discussing urban problems as well as personal difficulties that may arise on the job. The Field and Educat i on Staf f should be an integral part of the ~Jrban Corps fro m now on, since it has proved so beneficial for the summer operat i on. Typical examples of seminars have ranged from speake r s such as Joe Bo one, Civil Ri ghts La ader in At lanta; to Members of the Mayor ' s Staff work i ng on Ur ban problems. We have t r ied to pick ,pe ople from all spec t rums of the urban sce ne t o give interns a good i dea o f what our problems are in Atlanta and what is being done and what should be d one ab out them.

A cata - logue of the s e re port s is availab l e for tho s e pers ons intere s ted and each report 6 �is on file in the Urban Corps office. The Atlanta Urban Corps has attained national prestige this first year due to the many people in Atlanta who were interes t ed in i ts succe ss. We have received unanticipated amounts of publicity from the local press to the nationally syndicated newspapers. We are the only program of our type which has been a b le t o obta i n suppo rt f rom the business communi ty, educational community, the government, and public service cormnuni ty. The greatest factor for success now rests with the educational and governmental sector. I urge those members of the business group on our Board of Trustees and other influential membe r s t o try t o persuade the new Mayor to suppor t the Urban Corps as much as Mayor Allen has. Also, we are i n desperate need of f unds as usual. Mem- bers of the business coummunity should help our student staff members i n raising these funds.
