Hon. Ivan Allen, Mayor
City of Atlanta, Ga.
City Hall
Atlanta, Georgia
Dear Mayor Allen:
I take this opportunity to tell you that I found the
speech informative and interesting that you delivered to
the Fulton County Delegation at the Tech Motel.
You mentioned that you would never advocate merger or
consolidation without the consent of all areas involved.
On the strength of this statement, do I understand
that you or your administration would oppose, or at least
not support, the Commission's plan to effect Atlanta and
Fulton County school systems merger, through abolition of
the Atlanta school system?
In effect, this plan would deny the citizens outside
Atlanta a voice or vote in this matter that so vitally
effects and concerns them.
So that I might keep the citizens of South Fulton
informed, I would like to further inquire why the city of
Atlanta, at this time, is interested only in consolidation
in Fulton County?
I feel, as I am sure you do, that our citizens should
be informed on matters that concern them.
I would appreciate it if you could take the time from
your busy schedule to give to me the requested information
so that I may pass it on to my constituents.
Sincerely,
() t } eZ
