MEMORANDUM

TO: Mr. George Berry

FROM: Charles L. Davis “4>—

Reference is made to your memo of October 23, 1969, in which
you discuss the appropriation the City of Atlanta is making to
the Citizens Advisory Committee for Urban Renewal.

Along this line, I would like to advise that in either May or
June of this year I worked very closely with Mr. Noah Langdale
and Dean Alex Lacey who was then acting as Director of the
Committee regarding the current year's appropriation. It was
concluded at that time that there would be no funds requested
from the City in 1969 and that future appropriations would be
reduced from the $15,000 level to approximately $3,000 per year.
This reduction took into account the City furnishing an
Executive Director and the proper supporting clerical resources,

We have removed the 1969 appropriation and have earmarked the
1970 Budget Request to show a request of approximately $3,000
for the Citizens Advisory Committee for Urban Renewal.
