MOSES, Executive Secretary DAN E. SWEAT, JR., Director of Governmental Liaison Mr. Collier Gladin Director of Planning City of Atlanta 700 City Hall Atlanta, Georgia Dear Collier: Re: Your letter to John T. Edmunds of February 25, 1969 This is to request that you transfer the $8, 615 remaining in Amendatory Application #2 of the Community Improvement Program to the Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council. It was the inte nt of the Pre sid e nt's Council on Youth Opportunity that the CRP in HUD b e used simply as a conduit to provide funds to city youth agencies for summer planning and programming. There was no intent to require local CRP (CIP) agencies to justify the use of these funds as a part of the normal CRP program activities. This is also the understanding of John Edmunds. I see no reason w hy w e should not transfer the rema1n1ng funds from the 1968 approv al to the Youth Council immediately so they w_ill b e able to continue their present activities without interruption. Mr. E dmunds has informe d me th a t the $30, 000 for 1969 YOP activiti e s has been set aside by HUD in Washington for Atlanta's use. He will let us know shortly if your lette r can serve as th e 1969 application. 1~1y your::/ P// Sweat cc: Mayo r I van All en, J r.
