(~iTY OF DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE 501 CITY HALL ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30303 CHARLES L. DAVIS DIRECTOR OF FINANCE EDGAR A . VAUGHN, JR. DEPUTY DIRECTOR -OF FINANCE GEORGE J. BERRY DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF FINANCE January 16, 1969 Mr. William Wofford Building Department City of Atlanta Dear Bill: In reviewing the City's various funds in preparation of the 1969 budget, I have noted that we have not made significant expenditures from the demolition grant fund. As you are aware, this fund was established to handle the demolition grant project for which we received a grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. According to our records, we. have only expended a total of $19,229 for the y ears 1967 and 1968. A total of $85,540 was authorized for this project. I have reviewed your Mr. Waddell's report on this project in which he indicates that there were a total of 157 structures to be demolished under the program and that only 42 have been demolished in a two year period. It is a considerable cost to us in both time and effort to carry this f und. It is the sma ll es t f und and has the l ea st activity of any fund in our budget. I would appreciate your thoughts on how .we can move forward to complete this project and accomplish the intent of this program. Very truly yours, aL~~ ~-~ Charles L.
