96 Acres of Federal Surplus Land

Gentlemen:

The Housing Authority of the City of Atlanta has just made an offering
of residential and commercial property with provisions for proposals to
be evaluated for acceptance on criteria other than price.

The Housing Authority has issued an invitation for proposals for the pur—
chase and redevelopment of the residential and commercial portions of an
entire tract of approximately 96 acres of Federal Surplus land which has
been a part of the United States Penitentiary and now, by Amendment to the
Project Plan, a part of the Thomasville Urban Redevelopment Area. -

Complete details of this offering, including the criteria which will be
used in evaluating proposals, are set forth in the enclosed sales brochure.

Proposals for the purchase and redevelopment of this property must be sub-
mitted at a public meeting to be held in the office of The Housing Authority
at 10:00 A. M. on the 5th day of September, 1968, on forms to be furnished

by the Agency.

If you need additional information or desire to make a proposal, please

The Proposal must include a comprehensive develoPment design of the entire
tract. Redeveloper must designate the residential and commercial areas to be
developed and submit with the Proposal its plans for the purchase and development
of these areas in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Invitation and the
proposed Agreement for Disposition of Land, and all other Disposition Documents.
Redeveloper must also designate the areas within the tract to be devoted to
education, recreation, and streets and utilities in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Invitation and the Disposition Documents. The result must be a
Proposal for an economically and socially balanced residential and commercial
complex which will blend well with the surrounding community.

The development design must provide specifically for the following:

HOUSING: Though the object is to serve a cross-section of social and economic
groups, the Redeveloper will be required to develop a substantial portion (at least
300 units) of the housing to units for families of the lowest income group. Building
types should be varied and include one to five bedroom units.

EDUCATION: The developer will be required to designate land in the area which
will be acquired and developed by the Atlanta Board of Education for the following
education facilities:

a. Two Primary School sites of three (3) usable acres each
located on either side of the expressway.

b. A Middle School of at least eighteen (18) acres of usable
land. This school may be reduced in size to twelve (l 2) acres
if it is located adjacent to the park.

RECREATION: The deveIOper will be required to designate at least six (6) acres of
usable land, which will be acquired by the Atlanta Parks Department, for the
expansion of the existing park into a Neighborhood Park.

COMMERCE: The redeveloper may designate and acquire and develop a retail
commercial area(s) not to exceed six (6) acres of land primarily to serve the
residents of the tract here under consideration.

As provided in the attached Agreement for Disposition of Land this retail and
commercial area will not be conveyed to the Redeveloper until construction of a

substantial number of housing units has been commenced, as more specifically
designated in the Redeveloper’s Proposal.

STREETS AND UTILITIES: The land designated in the Redeveloper’s Proposal for
public streets which conform to the standards of the City of Atlanta, will be
acquired by others at no expense to the Redeveloper. Street improvements including
paving, sidewalks, and storm drainage and public utilities including water and
sanitary sewers will be installed within acceptable public rights-of-way at no expense

URBAN REDEVELOPMENT
PROTEOTS THE FUTURE
OF YOUR INVESTMENT

In any Urban Redevelopment Area. no pros
posal can receive consideration that contem-
plates an unpermitted use. This assures good
neighbors and permanence of values. All
proposals must include a statement by the
developer showing financial responsibility
and capability to successfully complete the
proposed improvements set forth in prelimi-
nary drawings and a narrative description.
These are carefully considered before a de-
termination is made as to which proposal is
to be accepted. The Authority will accept
such proposals, if any, as it deems to be in
the public interest and in furtherance of the
purposes of the Georgia Redevelopment Law.
in evaluating the proposals, the Authority
will consider the compatability of the pro-
posed development to other existing and
planned improvements in the area; the ex-
cellence of the proposed design and the
quality of the overall planning of the pro«
posed development; and the size of the
'pmposed development, particularly as it
relates to effect on the tax digest. These
tracts are in a protected area—this is funda-
mental to the whole basic concept of Urban
Redevelopment.

1017 Capitol Avenue, S.W}
Atlanta. Georgia 30315
December 3rd, 1968

Honorable Ivan Allen. Jr.
Mayor, City of Atlanta
City Hall

Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Mayor Allen:

Tenants United For Fairness (TUFF) is an organization
dedicated to obtaining fair treatment for the residents

of public housing in Atlanta. Its members include public
housing tenants, other members of the low-income community
who have been or may be in the future tenants in public
housing. and other individuals who are sympathetic to the
goals of the organization.

As you will recall, TUFF selected the November 8th meeting
of the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment
Officials (NAHRO) at the Marriott Motel to bring to the
attention of the public the deplorable conditions of life
in the AHA projects. When a group of TUFF members appeared
before you at that meeting to seek your assistance in their
dealings with the Atlanta Housing Authority, you generously
offered your help and sympathy.

The purpose of this letter is to respond to your offer, and

to ask you to meet with us and to use the power and prestige
of your office to bring about a resolution of our conflicts

with the Atlanta Housing Authority.

As you know, our individual grievances are numerous, and,
to us, deeply distressing. They involve hundreds of
incidents including the AHA‘s arbitrary decisions to dig up
all of the gardens at Capitol Homes; they involve the fines
and rules imposed by the housing authority in a manner that
seems to us unfair; and they involve a general atmosphere
of bullying and intimidation.





Honorable Ivan Allen December 3, 1968 e~Page 2

We would not, however, seek to burden you with our individual
problems. We turn to you because the entire system of public
housing in Atlanta is operated in an arbitrary manner, without
any concern whatsoever for the rights, desires or legitimate
aspirations of the tenants. We turn to you for assistance in

making basic structural changes in the operation of the Atlanta
Housing Authority.

In brief, we would like to discuss the necessity for tenant
participation in the management of public housing, and the
necessity for a tenant review board or hearing panel empowered
to hear all tenant complaints and to review all decisions of
the local housing managers.

We are not alone in realizing the necessity for greater tenant
involvement in the operation of public housing, nor in recog—
nition of the necessity for housing authorities to realize

that public housing residents have rights that must be protected.
As one example of the nationwide concern with these questions,

we have attached to this letter a copy of the questions posed

by NAHRO to its November 8 Workshop, asking: -

1. How are The HAA Social Goals Being Implemented in
Public Housing? and;

2. What Does Tenant Participation Mean?

Many of the questions asked by NAHRO point directly to the
abusive practices we seek to change. We have also attached

a copy of the proposed Bill of Rights For Public Housing
Tenants. This Bill of Rights was drafted by and has been
presented by The Housing Law Center of the Earl warren Institute
to HUD for adoption. We believe that Atlanta can and should

lead the nation by being the first city to adopt it as a guideline
for the AHA.

In light of the foregoing, we the undersigned tenants of public
housing and members of TUFF request that you meet with our
representatives to discuss our problems. We also request that
you assist us by arranging for Our representatives to meet with
representatives of the AHA so that our grievances and our
requests may be presented to them.





Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr. December 3rd, 1968 ——Page 3

we sincerely believe that many of our differences with
the Atlanta Housing Authority can be resolved through
frank and sincere negotiations. we seek the opportunity
for such negotiations at the earliest possible date, and
implore you to assist us in our endeavors.

Sincerely,
O

Ann:

Attached is the AHA letter for the Mayor's
signature.

Please read over the paragraph on the

second page which I have clipped. I have

circled the word on Dan‘s draft which I

wasn‘t sure of — I believe it is "Commissioners”.
You might be able to tell if this is the right

word or not. I'm not sure!

Also, do we need to send copies to anyone?
Dan didn't indicate whether we should or
not. If we do, I'll need to make Xerox
copies before it is mailed.

Dear Eddie:

Thirty-one years ago the Atlanta Housing Authority was established to
provide for decent shelter for the less fortunate citizens of Atlanta.

Under the Authority leadership, the very first low—rent public housing
project in America was built — Techwood Homes. Since that time, AHA
has built and operated some 10, 550 units‘ of public housing and has
almost 1, 587 units under construction for occupancy very soon.

At the same time, AHA has been the administrative arm for the City
of Atlanta urban redevelopment program. Like the public housing
program, the urban renewal program has long been recognized as one
of the most outstanding in the United States.

No one can deny this fact!

The Atlanta Housing Authority has been a moving force behind the
growth and develoPment of this city.

Over the years since the inception of AHA, we have seen staggering
changes in the economic, social and political face of Atlanta. AHA,
like many other successful forces in the city, has been an agent for
much of this change. It has, in fact, undergone much change in itself.

Any organization which exists for any length of time builds up policies
and procedures which must undergo constant review and revision as the
environment in which it ope rates undergoes revision and evolution.



Mr. Sterne
Page Two
March 6, 1969

The demands of the Tenants United for Fairness (TUFF) is a manifestation
of one of the most profound changes in our society of the last decade. The

rising expectations of the poor and forgotten for a bigger voice in the things
which affect their lives have united many individuals in hopes that the many
voices joined together will be heard.

The voices of these people might not always be right, but they must be
heard.

It is my thought that the best interests of all the city could be served by
a general public review of AHA policies and procedures and revision of
such policies and procedures where this might be necessary to protect

and satisfy the city as a whole.

I do not intend to imply that AHA is right or wrong in any way so far as
charges of TUFF are concerned. But I do feel that AHA, through its own
initiation, might do everyone a great good by calling for a general review
of its operations.

This might be done by setting up a blue ribbon committee of AHA
commissioners, tenant representatives and leaders from the Chamber
of Commerce, Christian Council, League of Women Voters, etc.
Professional consultant help might also be brought in to assist such

a committee .

I realize such a step could be a painful experience. At the same time,
it might be the less painful route in the long run.

I will appreciate your comments and thoughts.

Sincerely yours,

Ivan Allen, Jr.

Dear Johnny:
The present status of TUFF is as follows:

On January 16th, the Executive Board of TUFF had
a meeting with the Board of Commissioners of the Atlanta
Housing Authority, and presented to AHA a "Tenants' Bill
of Rights", a copy of which I have enclosed for your
convenience. There was only desultory talk about TUFF's
grievancas. the principal issue TUFF presented to the
authority being the future and not the past. That meeting
concluded when the Authority agreed to "study“ the proposed
Bill of Rights. When Mrs. Mandy Griggs asked Mr. Stern how
TUFF would have to wait for a response, Mr. Stern informed
her that he "hoped" to have a response "within six months"
but could make no promises.

On February 3rd, TUFF called a meeting of community
leaders to discuss tenants' grievances against the Atlanta
Housing Authority. The following organizations were repre—
sented at that meeting:

Good Government Atlanta

Southern Christian Leadership Conference

Metropolitan Atlanta Summit Leadership
Conference

Alpha and Omega Christian Church

Young Men On The Go

Incorporated.

Approximately seventy people were in attendance and at
the close of the meeting, Reverend B. J. Johnson recommended
that those present support the efforts of TUFF to obtain the

Tenants' Bill of Rights they had requested,and support TUFF
in any other way possible.



Mr. John Robinson February 10th. 1969
Office of the Mayor Page #3.

The Motion was unanimously carried and the partici~
pants of the meeting then determined to have a mass meeting
on public housing property in order to test the housing
authority's decision to forbid TUFF the use of its community

centers.

The group agreed to meet late in February. The
leaders of TUFF and the leaders of the organizations
represented at the February 3rd meeting are now making

plans for that mass meeting.

According to my most recent information. the Boards
of Directors of the following organizations have endorsed
TUFF's Bill of Rights and pledged to support TUFF:

Metropolitan Atlanta Summit Leadership

Conference

Concerned Clergy
Good Government Atlanta

Georgia Council on Human Relations. and

Metropolitan Atlanta Housing Conference.
Incorporated.

As TUFF's legal advisor. I am. as you might imagine.
anxious to avoid any situation in which my clients would
find themselves at odds with legally constituted authority.





Mr. John Robinson February 10th. 1969
Office of the Mayor Page £4.

The rigid and uncompromising position of the housing
authority. however. has now angered a large segment of
informed opinion in Atlanta. Anything your office can
do to assist my clients would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely.

Michael D. Padnos

Director

P. S. I have just learned from Mrs. Griggs. Chairman

of TUFF, that the housing authority has demanded

of her a substantial payment for ”excess gas" and
has refused to accept her rent unless she is willing
to tender the excess payment.
