CITY OF ATLANTA DEPARTMENT OF PARKS OFFICE OF GENERAL MANAGER ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30303 September 25, 1969 JACK C. DELIUS GENERAL MANAGER FRED P. WHITL EY ASST. GEN. MANAGER FRED. W. BOSWELL ASST. GEN. MANAGER VIRGINIA CARMICHAEL. D I R . OF RECREATION - Mr. George J. Berry Deputy Chief Administrative Officer Office of the Mayor 206 City Hall STANLEY T . MARTIN ACMIN. ASSISTANT Dear George: Miss Jimmie Mims, Recreation Division, has furnished a list of eight playlot sites that would be suitable for permanent development. These sites were selected from the standpoint of good past participation as well as potential attractiveness and ease of development. I have visited all of the sites and selected what I considered the bes t four. The four sites were then referred to the Land Agent for a rough cost appraisal which amounts to a total of $69,000.00 (The Angier and Parkway site had to be discarded as it is in an urban renewal area.) It would appear to me that the above pos sib l e cost for land acquisition doesn't leave enough for development costs and I would pre fer to keep exp loring for sui table sites that might be bought for a lower price. Our design criteria would be to incorporate modern, colorful play e quipme nt that would invite heavy participation by the childre n. George, please advise about the land purchases. Sincere ly , A.
